ago as a member of various committees
specializing in fundraising. As an avid
golfer, she and her husband, Tom,
organized, sponsored and competed
in GSU's Going for the Green Golf
Tournament each year. This labor of love
began with just six teams in a spring
snowstorm and grew to over 40 teams in
the tournament's 18th year.
Kendrick has received considerable
recognition in the community for her
service with GSU, including the Hearts
and Hands award for community
contributions and the Thanks Badge I
and Thanks Badge II, the highest awards
for adults in Girl Scouting.
Stone has been serving as a member
of GSU's board of directors for three
years, and recently chaired the 2012 Girl
Scouts of Utah International Women's
Day event, an international holiday that
celebrates the past, present and future
achievements of women.
"Being a part of GSU is so
rewarding," Stone said. "It is extremely
inspirational. I have been able to
changed thousands of women's
lives throughout the years,
including those of attorney
Erin Stone and paralegal
specialist Karen Kendrick at
Primerus member firm Prince,
Yeates & Geldzahler in Salt
Lake City, Utah.
Stone and Kendrick, both
Girl Scouts in their youth,
are now giving back by being
highly involved with the Girl
Scouts of Utah (GSU).
doing amazing things in the community.
It is great to give girls confidence in
themselves so they are able to give
back to the community. I am so happy
that I am able to give these girls these
opportunities."
Stone is also coordinating other
programs for GSU, including an event
with Women Lawyers of Utah, where
Girl Scouts and attorneys will work side
by side on a service project. This event
gives the participants a chance to give
back to the community while providing
the girls with an opportunity to meet and
mingle with professional women. Another
upcoming event that Stone is excited
about is Camp CEO, where women CEOs
will attend camp with Girl Scouts and
teach the girls leadership skills.
"We want to give girls the necessary
skills to be the CEO of a company or the
CEO of their home," Stone said. "We
want to show them that they have options
and can be successful women no matter
what path they choose."
