A SWEET OFFERING - Sitka Fire Chief Craig Warren accepts, on behalf of first responders, 108 boxes of Girl Scout cookies from Zeylinn Joseph, today in front of the fire hall. Zeylinn has been a scout for six years. This is the first year she has donated boxes to first responders. She says she is ready to sell 3,500 boxes this year by herself as a Girl Scout Juliette, instead of as a member of a troop. She can be reached at 907 623-7456. (Sentinel Photo by James Poulson)
