Letter: Thank you, Chad Hays, for new "Scout Shed"
Girl Scout cookies are here! You can find them at local booths beginning this weekend, February 14.
One place in Ada you will find them is at Hays Insurance drive-through, but there's a difference this year. Chad Hays, owner of Hays Insurance, has turned what used to be an ATM into a "Scout Shed," complete with heat, electricity, a bench and shelves.
The local Girl Scouts will not have to be outside in the cold at that site and you can purchase your cookies at the window.
The Girl Scouts and Hardin County want to offer a warm thank you to Chad Hays for this example of his community involvement.
