Girl Scout Phyllis Sanders Gathering Firewood
| Girl Scout Phyllis Sanders of Madison gathering firewood for cooking lunch during a one day Roundup of the Girl Scouts, Brownies, and Intermediates of Districts II and IV of the Blackhawk Council of Girl Scouts on the Henry Raemisch Hereford and Trout Farm near Dodgeville. Phyllis suffered from sickle-cell anemia as a child, and her childhood friend Betty Pace was motivated by seeing Phyllis’ suffering to begin her revolutionary research into treating—and hopefully curing—sickle-cell anemia. |
