81-year-old Marilyn Vleck of Nebraska always wanted to be a Girl Scout, but but when she was a girl, her family couldn’t afford the fee, so she had to put that dream on hold. It took several decades, but Marilyn's dream of becoming a Girl Scout has finally come true. That's right- to celebrate her 81st birthday, Marilyn became a Girl Scout.

Marilyn's dream began to take shape when her sister, Donna, contacted the Girl Scouts of Nebraska hoping to get a used uniform to give to her sister for her birthday. Instead, the organization did her one better and officially inducted Marilyn into the organization.
