Forwarding this request to the group

This was recieved on another scoutlist we started with is tiny so i
thought I would send a copy on to this list as part of helping her with
project. If you know any girls scouts you can share this with, or perhaps
she would like to include gravel donations from various BSA Troops and
Packs.
