Eau Claire (WQOW) - Some eighth graders are doing their homework about bullying, and now they hope to help teach others.

Four members of a Girl Scout troop from the Stanley-Boyd School District will host an anti-bullying workshop Saturday. The event is a way to receive credit for their troop, but also to help educate others about bullying.

"A lot of people if they see bullying, or if they are being bullied, they are afraid to come forward and say what's happening. So we hope that this gives them the courage to stand up for themselves in front of others," said Amanda Wright, one of the girls who will help host the event.

Registration begins at 12:30 Saturday with presentations starting at 1. Admission is free.
