Hingham’s first Girl Scout Leader, Bertha Stringer (in a white jacket) is seen here with England’s first Scout, Lady Badin-Powell, A.H. Choate, Rio Newton Chining, and young Michael Patterson ready to slide down the front lawn on a toboggan. Miss Stringer loved all things outdoors from sailing to sledding and was a wonderful example to the Hingham Girl Scouts. The photo is from the archives of the Hingham Girl Scout House.
