Traditions
& Ceremonies
Ceremonies are a traditional and
very important part of Girl Scouting. Ceremonies connect us to each
other, honor milestones and events, celebrate accomplishments,
explore meaning, celebrate good times, and
create a sense of unity. As Girl Scouts is
girl-led, girls must always be
involved when planning a ceremony.
