Whose award is it?
Our volunteers are very
enthusiastic about the awards and patches the girls earn, because
they guide them through the process. Along the way, they do so much
of the program, and become so intimately involved with it, that they
sometimes want to get a patch for themselves. However, in Girl
Scouts there’s a distinction between awards and patches the girls
earn and fun patches for adults. Please leave the girl awards for
the girls, and take pride in wearing the insignia of
adult Girl Scouts. It's important that a person wear only
awards that she has earned, and adults don't earn girl awards.
