COUNCIL PATCH PROGRAMS
 

Council Patches are great program opportunities that can easily be implemented by anyone! To earn these patches, girls complete exciting and educational activities related to a certain area of focus. Once the activities are completed, the patch may be purchased in one of our Council Shops. These patches can be added to the back* of your tunic, vest, or sash.

*Note: Although some of the patches are shaped like Try-Its, Badges or Interest Project Patches, they are not officially sanctioned by GSUSA. Therefore, Council Patch Programs cannot be used toward Bronze, Silver, or Gold Award requirements and the patches are worn on the back of the uniform.
