YORKTOWN, N.Y. - Yorktown Troop 2923 received the Silver Award in a ceremony Saturday in Central Valley, N.Y. for its project on cancer awareness, "A World Without Cancer, How Sweet it Would Be."

The seven scouts were among hundreds from across Westchester and the Hudson Valley who received the award at Monroe-Woodbury High School.

The Girl Scout Silver Award is the second-highest award that girls can earn in Girl Scouts. It represents a girl's commitment to herself and to her community as she focuses on leadership, career exploration, personal challenges and completing a lasting project that will benefit her community.
