Contact customercare@girlscouts-gsci.org to set up a training!
Before setting up a virtual meeting, you’ll want to:
• Partner with troop families to make sure the girls are safe online.
• Select a meeting platform that allows families who may not have internet access
to call in.
• Think about logistics: work with the girls to set up ground rules; consider how you’ll
incorporate in-person meeting traditions in your virtual space and how you’ll keep
the meeting on track.
• Talk with families on how to keep activities girl-led if your girls will be completing
them from home.

Highest Girl Scout Awards
Bronze. Silver. Gold. These represent the highest honors Girl Scouts can earn as Juniors, Cadettes, Seniors, and
Gold Awards
Gold Awards
Ambassadors. All three awards give girls the chance to do big things while working on an issue that’s captured their interest in a
big way. Whether they want to plant a community garden at school and inspire others to eat healthily for the Bronze, advocate for
animal rights for the Silver, or build a career network that encourages girls to become scientists and engineers for the Gold, they’ll
inspire others (and themselves).
The first step for a girl interested in earning her highest award is participating in an Award Chat. Award Chats will discuss the
guidelines for earning the Bronze, Silver, and Gold Awards. The chats will be hosted as a go-to meeting, which will consist of a
PowerPoint training that outlines the guidelines, paperwork and deadlines. It will also include a question-and-answer opportunity, Hannah McGinty SydneyGirl
