Five amazing women. One inspiring afternoon. Girl
Scouts of Southeast Florida will honor five extraordinary
women from Palm Beach County at the 11th Annual
Emerald Awards on April 12, at the Four Seasons Resort,

qualities in their respective fields, serve as significant role
models for young women in our community and embody
the characteristics of today’s problem solvers, dreamers,
changemakers and doers.
An Emerald Awards honoree is recognized as a
woman who brings new ideas to life, demonstrates
creative problem solving and brings innovation to her
field of expertise or community. She embodies the go-
getter, innovator, risk-taker, and leader characteristics
of today’s Girl Scout and drives change in her
community.
