The Senate concurrent resolution No. R-72 congratulates Liliane Gordon from Hinesburg for receiving the prestigious Girl Scout Gold Award, the highest honor for Girl Scouts in grades 9-12. Liliane, a freshman at the University of Vermont's Grossman School of Business, has demonstrated exceptional leadership and commitment to community service. She captained the Champlain Valley Union High School girls track and field teams and initiated a project called "Get Active!" to address the rising issues of obesity, screen time, and mental health among young Vermonters exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic. Her project involved coaching young athletes, providing resources for parents, and creating a video showcasing the benefits of sports participation.

In addition to her Gold Award project, Liliane has been an active member of her community, serving as the top cookie seller for her Girl Scout troop for six years, participating in the Girls Rock the Capitol program, and engaging in various service activities such as Green Up Day and student council. Her achievements were recognized at her high school graduation when she received an academic athletic award. The resolution not only celebrates her accomplishments but also directs the Secretary of State to send copies of the resolution to Liliane and the Girl Scouts of the Green and White Mountains.
