This serious group of girls had a seriously great opportunity ... and even though it has taken me a while to get up a post about it, it's still one of my favorite moments.
Tulsa Shock graciously worked with us on a BIG event where girls had the opportunity to experience different roles through the night. I brought in a good friend of mine who is a real reporter and journalist to lead and inspire the girls. Not only did he do that, but he was able to get them an interview with the coach after the game!
This is what makes my heart so soft ... people who volunteer simply by sharing their skills and abilities, making a new opportunity open up for girls. I don't know if they realized how lucky they were, but they took full advantage of the moment! I was so impressed. They asked not only great questions, but GUTSY questions! One, in fact, made the other reporters in the room gasp and scribble in their notebooks, too. But even better than that, they made the coach's day and she encouraged them as well.
One young lady submitted her story to the Girl Scout Council, so we put it up online and you can read all about it (including her gutsy question) by clicking here.
