April 2017 Junior Girl Scouts Digital Photography Exhibit
On April 22, thirty-two Junior Girl Scouts from the Green Bay area assembled at the Brown County Central Library for a Digital Photography Workshop, led by the Brown County Historical Society. The workshop focused on the girls engaging in photography and editing their photos.

The day started with Dennis Jacobs, a local historian, leading a presentation in the History of Photography. When the presentation was over, the girls set out in five groups, led by Colleen Bies (with the assistance of Katie Schmidt), Chuck Golueke, Dennis Jacobs, Suzanne Stank, and Shaunae Teske to explore Downtown Green Bay and photograph the city.

After the Walking Tour concluded, the girls returned to the library to edit three photos to submit to the Brown County Historical Society for this online exhibit. Once the girls finished editing and submitted their photos, all the Junior Girl Scouts successful earned their Digital Photography Badge and that concluded the workshop.
