| Guest: | Poem (A badge is.....) |
B |
Stands for Badges to be given today. What is a badge? An outward sign of an inner accomplishment. The scrap of colored material is not nearly so important as the job that was done to earn it. | |
A |
Awards given at the Court of Awards. Here we are not rewarded for the badge itself but for what the badge represents. It means new knowledge, new skills learned, and new opportunities to be of service to others. | |
D |
stands for Deeds. Good deeds to be done now and in the future for family, friends, and the community. Good deeds done with the knowledge and skills acquired through the badges. | |
G |
Is the Girl in Girl Scouts and the growth we achieve through living the Girl Scout Promise and Law. | |
E |
is for Eagerness and Energy necessary to earn badges. Badges do not come easily and they should not, or their value would be small. Badges present challenges and satisfaction in accomplishment. | |
S |
stands for so many things. Service to others, Self-Development, and most important, Self-Respect -- the way you feel about yourself as a person. | |
