Virginia Beach, Va. – ‘Let’s Stop Animal Cruelty’ will be presented by Girl Scout Troop 764 at the SPCA located near Holland Road this Saturday in Virginia Beach.

The Girl Scout Troop members are working on their Silver Award, and are asking for the public’s support in sharing information on animal cruelty.
