Dolly Parton Gives 400 Girl Scouts Awards at Dollywood
Posted by admin under: recognition .
Country Music Television has a story that follows up my previous post about the new program that Dolly Parton created with the Girl Scouts of the USA. The first girls to earn the “Coat of Many Colors” award were invited to Dollywood. Guess who showed up?
Dolly Parton surprised 400 Girl Scouts at her Dollywood theme park in Pigeon Forge, Tenn., on Saturday (June 13) as the children accepted the first batch of the new “Coat of Many Colors” patches. Parton wore her own Girl Scouts uniform to the event, which celebrated the launch of a patch that can be earned by helping others and then creating a collage of their own unique qualities. In related news, fans began lining up late Sunday afternoon to receive credentials for Parton’s two autograph sessions taking place Monday (June 15) in downtown Nashville. A morning appearance at the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum and an afternoon visit to the Opry Originals store were scheduled to promote Parton’s current album, Backwoods Barbie, and her new children’s book, I Am a Rainbow.
