ALPENA — Girl Scout Troop 1033 of St Paul Lutheran Church recently had a guest speaker. Cristi Johnson, owner of Skella-Fit, talked to the Scouts about the importance of exercise and weight lifting. The Scouts are working on two Sport Badges and most of them are athletes so the information was helpful to them. The meeting with the girls postive outlook also had a direct impact on Johnson who wrote about her experience with them in a column in The News on Wednesday.
