Girl Scout Cookies 2021

Cookies for the Future

Each year the sales of Girl Scout cookies provide funds for great learning adventures, and other opportunities for girls.  

These Girl Scouts are learning a variety of valuable life skills while they are planning, setting up their sales pages, contacting the customers, delivering and reporting their sales of these delightful morsels.

The Girls Scouts did a terrific job of adjusting to sales with Covid restrictions.

Fun and Goals 

This year our girls came from Troops located in Arlington, Granite Falls, Edmonds, Everett, Maltby and Mill Creek.

We asked what their Favorite Girl Scout activities were and their answers included:

The Mountain Shadows camp, which is a two night trip with sing-alongs, crafts and sports. Going on field trips to the pumpkin patch, zoo and the fire station. Earning badges. Designing and sketching outfits, making ice cream, canoeing, animal tracking and other things like that. 

But at the heart of the matter, these Girl Scouts loved Camp, Camping, Camping! And more Camping!!

Our Girl Scouts Fundraising goals for this year.

  • Troop is raising money to do a camping experience together, pending Covid restrictions. 
  • Raising money to donate to an in-between shelter for kids removed from dangerous domestic situations.
  • I hope to sell 200 boxes this year.
  • Disneyland.
  • To raise money for the community.
  • We are raising money to help Cocoon House.
  • Our troop wants to help local animal shelters and go on a troop horseback riding trip.
  • Fundraising for camping and community service projects!
  • My goal is to earn money for helping animals, like the girl scout horses. And also money for camping trips. I am trying to sell 350 boxes of cookies.
  • Projects on saving the environment.,
  • Saving our money for a big trip in a couple of years.
  • My troop is going on their first trip to Disneyland.  
  • We are also sending cookies to the troops overseas.

We are happy to help these Girl Scouts meet their goals and pursue their dreams.

Santa’s Visit 2020

Santa Visit 2020

As he is known to do, Santa tip toed in for a quick visit at Merrill Law.

With Covid in mind, he arrived without his reindeer or his favorite friend Jingles. He kept his distance as he checked out the holiday decorations to make sure we had joined the Holiday Spirit.

We all know that Santa has been a front runner in his use of Technology to keep tabs on all the Boys and Girls. So all these digital meetings might very well have been invented by one of his Elves.

He inspected our Zoom Room and gave it a thumbs up in approval.

Santa has agreed to let us host a special life sized photo booth. He has dispatched his sleigh to send us the specially made stand up cut out of himself, for our photo booth.

We will post a special note when it arrives, so that you can be part of the fun. Free “U-Take” photos with Santa Standee.

Be sure to follow along with us as we see what other great ideas he has for us this year!

2020 Winner Rick Merrill Attorney Dream Scholarship

The Attorney Rick Merrill Dream Scholarship

The Dream Scholarship was started in 2016 to help support the dreams of a current high school or college student looking to make a difference through the pursuit of their passion.

Applicants were asked to submit a picture with a caption that in combination shares their dream and shows how it makes a difference.

Each year we present a $1500 scholarship to applicant who provides the most creative photo or image with a caption to  explain their dream.

2020 Winner Shelvina Singh

This is a picture of my Papa’s last day on earth. His hand is on the bottom (past), mine is the middle hand (present) and my son on top (future). This picture represents 3 generations. 

Growing up I always wanted to be able to help everyone and if I saw someone sad it would make me sad. My dad always wanted me to do something that would benefit others but life had other plans for me. Now I am 31 years old and back in college to pursue my dream to be a nurse. I know how much it would make my dad proud.  I got my high school diploma at 30 years old and now on my way to a nursing degree. 

The reason I chose this picture is because my dad holds my past, I am my present and my son is our future. My son is the reason I got it together and went back to college to get my degree. This hasn’t been an easy journey with everything that is going on at the moment but I know the day I get my degree my Papa will be so very proud of me. 

Congratulations to our Winner.

We wish you well in your efforts to become a Registered Nurse.

Special Thank you.

This year we would like to thank Mary and Bruce Nemeth and Mr. Hur for partnering with Rick Merrill to provide this scholarship.

Happy Mothers Day

Happy Mothers Day

A salute for that special Mother who has looked after us and touched our lives for the better.

Bringing joy to a birthday, playing in the sun with us as a child, baking cookies, cheering in the stands, staying awake with us through the night while we battle a nasty illness, showering us with butterfly kisses and band aids.

Sharing our laughter, and tears along with bits of wisdom and humor.

Mom “isms”…

Those strange sayings, that pop out of my mouth and give people just a moment of surprise and usually a smile.

So to all of you dedicated Mothers, and to their children…of any age…

HAPPY MOTHERS DAY

Here’s to all the amazing Mothers

Avid supporters of their family

Patient and Persistent in their dedication

Praise upon their lips

Yet attentive when the need for direction must be given

Touching our hearts in so many ways

Helping us through the difficult times in life

Encouraging us to pursue our dreams and aspirations

Reaching toward our goals

Sharing in a selfless manner

 

Determined to provide stability and guidance

Always loving, hoping, and caring

Yearning to see their children reflect Love, Life, Learning
