2018-2019 Activity Guide

We are the Girl Scouts and we believe in the power of every girl.

When a Girl Scout unleashes her inner G.I.R.L. (Go-getter, Innovator, Risk-taker, and Leader) ™ the possibilities are endless. Whether she’s conquering her fear of heights by trying rock climbing, or taking the lead in the community by planning a service project to combat hunger, a Girl Scout can do anything and everything that she sets her mind to.

At Girl Scouts—North Carolina Coastal Pines we believe that every girl should be given the tools and resources needed to lead like a G.I.R.L., and our mission is to prepare girls of all ages, interests, and skills for a lifetime of success through unique, life-changing programs and adventures. When she is encouraged to step outside her comfort zone through new experiences, she can develop skills and passions she never imagined. She will demonstrate grit and determination in achieving goals, leverage creative thinking when solving problems, build a courageous spirit while embracing challenges, and lead the way with empathy and bravery.

WE BELIEVE IN THE POWER OF

Powered by Girl Scouts, we are changing the world, one G.I.R.L. at a time. With programming in STEM, outdoors, entrepreneurship, and life skills, girls can challenge themselves in new and exciting ways – whether it be building a robot, pursuing one of our highest awards, or starting her own business. Our 2018-2019 Activity Guide is full of amazing programs, trainings, and special opportunities designed to empower her on her Girl Scout journey, as she embraces her strengths, pursues her passions, and discovers the power of the G.I.R.L. We can’t wait to see her learn, grow, and thrive this year as she embodies the true power of the Girl Scout.

THAT’S LIFE LIFE SKILLS Girl Scout Gold Award Proposals and Girl Scout Silver and Gold Award Final Reports

dUe dAtes

Girl scout highest Awards The Golden Eagle of Merit, the highest award in Girl Scouting from 1916 to 1919, marked the beginning of a long tradition of using a prestigious award to recognize girls who make a difference in their communities and in their own lives. In 1980, Girl Scouts introduced the Girl Scout Gold Award, the highest honor earned by Girl Scout Seniors and Ambassadors, along with the Girl Scout Silver Award earned by Girl Scout Cadettes. Today these two awards are the highest of the Girl Scout experience.

Girl Scout Gold Award The Girl Scout Gold Award is the highest and most prestigious award that Girl Scout Seniors and Ambassadors can earn.

The Girl Scout Gold Award follows the Standards of Excellence and challenges you to develop yourself as a leader, achieve the Girl Scout Leadership Outcomes, and make a mark on your community that creates a lasting impact on the lives of others.

Fulfilling the requirements for the Girl Scout Gold Award starts with the completion of two Girl Scout Senior or Ambassador Journeys, or having earned the Silver Award and completing one Senior or Ambassador Journey. Each Journey completed gives you the skills you need to plan and implement your Take Action project.

After you have fulfilled the Journey(s) requirement, 80 hours is the minimum hours for the steps: identifying an issue, investigating it thoroughly, getting help and building a team, creating a plan, presenting your plan, gathering feedback, taking action, and educating and inspiring others.

Girl Scout Silver Award Going for the Girl Scout Silver Award gives a Girl Scout Cadette the chance to show that she is a leader who is organized, determined, and dedicated to improving her community. The prerequisite to earning your Girl Scout Silver Award is to go on a Girl Scout Cadette Journey. Once you complete your Journey, the minimum time for earning your Girl Scout Silver Award is 50 hours. You can start by planning the time in parts, then dividing it up by the steps. Each step you and/or your award team take toward making a difference in the world gives you a great chance to learn and grow, and make your award project an amazing one!
