A local Girl Scout troop got some special assistance for their fundraising efforts to swim with dolphins this summer.

Scout Troop 34111 hosted an appearance from the Easter Bunny as they threw a fundraiser at Scouts Cafe on Friday. They offered photo opportunities and hugs to patrons to help their efforts to send their troop members on a trip to Florida this summer.
