As the final step in her pursuit of the distinguished Girl Scout Gold Award, Katie Eidem of local Troop 34229 presented a hand made xylophone to the staff of the Carbon County Environmental Education Center (CCEEC).
Eidem spent two months making the instrument completely of recycled materials. It will join a collection of other similarly made musical objects already in the Center's possession.
"I have built an instrument that will live long and inspire others," Eidem said. "I'm proud to have my work added to CCEEC's collection of recycled musical instruments."
