Castro Valley Girl Scout Graces Billboard to Promote Cookie Sales

Madison Glock, 6, a Daisy Scout with the Girl Scouts of Northern California, can be seen on a billboard in Downtown Oakland.

 

Six-year-old Castro Valley resident Madison Glock, a Daisy Girl Scout from Girl Scouts of Northern California, is one of three girls to win a contest co-sponsored by the scouts and the California Milk Processor Board (CMPB), the creator of the GOT MILK? campaign.

Glock and the other girls will be on the billboard promoting Girl Scout cookie sales — and milk, the preferred dunking medium.

The billboard will be up throughout the month of February at Grand Avenue and Broadway in Downtown Oakland.

Glock also won a camp scholarships and $500.

More than three million boxes of Girl Scout cookies have been delivered and will be on sale through March 17.

What's your favorite cookie? And do you dunk?

Another problem: When notified of a reply to a comment I could click the link in the email to go toRead More the article. That was not possible this time. So because a small minority zooms there computer the layout should be as it is? I don't think so. All that white space means that an article that could be read with just one or two clicks to scroll through is now going to take more scrolling to view. One thing that seems to be missing in today's world are web designers who (1) change the layout just because and (2) web designers who have neglected to consider the audience. The more I look at this layout the less I like it. The font needs to be darker than it is. the blue (like in "announcements") needs to be bolder. Overall, on a scale of 1 to 10 (10 best), I rank the new "improved" design a 3.

Why does the new layout waste nearly half of the screen? There's a wide white space on the left andRead More even wider white space on the right. While the old layout could have been tweaked some, the new format isn't the answer. One good thing. I no longer have to sign in each time I want to make a comment. It has finally decided that I'm serious when I say I want Patch to remember me on this computer.
