Congratulations Dakota Barnes!

Congratulations are in order to Dakota Barnes for being named the Youth Citizen of the Year by the Sun Valley/Ketchum Chamber & Visitors Bureau and the Hailey Chamber of Commerce. Dakota is a sophomore at Wood River High School and an outstanding Girl Scout, currently serving as a Senior Girl Scout Member on the Girl Scouts of Silver Sage Council Board of Directors. Not only was Dakota heavily involved in volunteering for the 2009 Special Olympics, but she also volunteers for the Wood River Arts Alliance, the Sun Valley Jazz Festival, Lee Pesky Scavenger Hunt, and the Holiday Basket program, just to name a few. Suffice it to say, Dakota is active and involved in her community.
