Girl
Scout Silver Award |
|
The Girl Scout Silver Award is
the highest honor a girl ages 11-14 can receive
in Girl Scouting and recognizes her accomplishments
in Girl Scouting and community activities. The
Girl Scout Silver Award focuses on her work
to improve her life and the lives of others.
Girls must complete four requirements that
help them build skills, explore careers, gain
leadership skills and make a commitment to self-improvement
before beginning the Girl Scout Silver Award
Project. It can be done individually or as a
group. If done with a group, a girl must be
responsible for a specific part of the project
and evaluate her contribution to the project
and the group.
