New Girl Scout Journeys
A key part of the New Girl Scout Leadership Experience is the leadership Journey, a coordinated series of activities grouped around a theme. Each Journey is tied to some of Girl Scouting's 15 national outcomes for girls, as defined in the Girl Scout Leadership Model. These outcomes are integral to the three leadership keys, Discover, Connect, and Take Action. Click the grade level Journey below for more information:

• Girl Scout Daisies - Welcome to the Daisy Flower Garden: In this journey for girl in grades K-1, a favorite pastime - gardening - meets the Girl Scout Law. The result is a storybook world of flowers and little girls who, together, do great things.
• Girl Scout Brownies - Brownie Quest: What are the most important keys for a Girl Scout to own? This quest, which has second- and third-graders traveling along two colorful trails—one they can enjoy on their own and one they explore with their Girl Scout group—answers that question in a very special way.
• Girl Scout Juniors - Agent of Change: Power. In this journey, there’s a whole spiral of it waiting for Girl Scout Juniors. The ourney is filled with ceremonies and circles, real-life heroines, and special new characters, including the fashion-savvy spider named Dez.
• Girl Scout Cadettes - aMAZE: The Twists and Turns of Getting Along: Life is a maze of relationships and this journey has Girl Scout Cadettes maneuvering through all its twists and turns to find true friendships, plenty of confidence, and maybe even peace.
• Girl Scout Seniors - GIRLtopia: Girl Scout Seniors know the world is not ideal. This journey is their chance to imagine a perfect world—for girls.
• Girl Scout Ambassadors -Your Voice, Your World: The Power of Advocacy: How often have you seen something that really needed to be changed and wondered, "Why isn’t someone doing something about that?" This journey gives Girl Scout Ambassadors a way.

Leadership Awards - The Highest Awards in Girl Scouting
In 1980, Girls Scouts introduced the Girl Scout Gold Award (for Girl Scouts 14-18) as its highest honor, along with the Girl Scout Silver Award (for Girl Scouts 11-14). To receive these awards, girls must meet requirements that help them prepare for, and complete, a special project benefiting their communities. Based on requests from Junior Girl Scouts (ages 8-11), the Girl Scout Bronze Award was introduced in 2001. Today these three awards are a highlight of the Girl Scout experience. Today these three awards are a highlight of the Girl Scout experience.

Girl Scout Gold Award
The Girl Scout Gold Award is the highest achievement a Girl Scout 14 to 18 can earn. It represents the work and dedication a girl has shown to Girl Scouting and her community as well as her commitment towards making the world a better place. The Girl Scout Gold Award was updated in 2004. Earning the Gold Award requires hard work and a willingness to take on significant responsibility. It will involve decision making and the ability to follow a plan set by each girl. Someone once described the Girl Scout Gold Award as being "what you really want to be remembered for" in Girl Scouting. For many, the leadership skills, organizational skills, and sense of community and commitment that come from "going for the Gold" set the foundation for a lifetime of active citizenship.

The first four requirements of the Girl Scout Silver Award help girls build skills, explore careers, gain leadership skills, and make a commitment to self-improvement. The Girl Scout Silver Award Project can be undertaken when the first four requirements are completed. It can be done as an individual or with 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.
