COMMACK HIGH SCHOOL

CHS principal Carrie Lipenholtz recognized senior Jailyn F. on Tuesday for achieving the Girl Scout Gold Award.

Jailyn's service project matched her passion with public service. An avid horse rider, Jailyn volunteered at the Warrior Ranch Foundation in Calverton, including by painting poles.

At the Warrior Ranch, military veterans and first-responders attend clinics and workshops where they learn from an expert how to work with horses in a number of capacities.
