Congratulations to our 2008 Silver Award Achievers

Congratulations to our 2009 Silver Award Achievers

The Girl Scout Silver Award is the highest award you can earn as a Girl Scout ages 11-14.  The award recognizes your efforts in a range of Girl Scouting and community experiences, as well as your commitment to work to enhance your life and the lives of others.

You may work on the Silver Award with your troop or as an individual.  Be sure to ask a mentor to help you if you choose to work on this award as an individual.  The mentor could be a friend, relative, teacher, etc.  You and your leader/mentor will decide when you have completed the work.

The first four requirements of the award are opportunities for you to increase your leadership skills, explore career possibilities and develop yourself to your full potential.  You may do these in any order, but they must be completed prior to the fifth requirement, the Girl Scout Silver Award Project.  You should work closely with your adult mentor while completing all requirements.  To find out more about the requirements refer to the Girl Scout Silver Award Go For It Studio 2B focus insert (available at council shop).
