The Bronze, Silver, and Gold Awards are the highest awards girls can earn in Girl Scouts. Our service unit is always very proud to have girls earn these awards and we strive to support and assist girls in this endeavor. The best way we can do this is to know about all our girl award projects, so we request the service unit be notified when an award project is proposed or completed. The girl or team of girls should complete the appropriate level project proposal form and submit it to the service unit or Council (directions are on the forms).


Once an award project is completed, the service unit would like to know the project was successfully completed and we ask the girl or team of girls to fill out a notice of completion form and forward Council's acceptance email to the service unit's appropriate Level Adviser. This will ensure the service unit maintains accurate records of all girl awards earned within the service unit each year. Knowing who earned a girl award allows the service unit to congratulate and honor every girl who earns the Bronze, Silver, or Gold Award.
