Girl Scouts Serve Seniors For Ninth Year At LITH Dinner

About 50 seniors attended the ninth annual Lake in the Hills Senior Spaghetti Dinner Friday served by a literally uncountable number of (very fast-moving) girls from LITH Girl Scout Troops.

It was the fifth spaghetti dinner in a row ("at least") for LITH senior Helen Neil.  "I enjoy the food and the camaraderie," she said. "And the little girls are wonderful," added tablemate Rosalee Cacciatiore.

Indeed, the Senior Spaghetti dinner's as much about the Scouts as the Seniors, said organizer LITH Parks & Rec. organizer Trevor Bosack.  "It started when they were looking for a way to serve the community," he said.

Girls from Brownie, Girl Scout and Junior Troops 148, 234 and 1066 did the honors at Friday's fete.  Funds were provided by the People For Parks Foundation.
