Ceremonies

Ceremonies mark special Girl Scout events throughout the year. They can celebrate major transitions, such as bridging to another level or getting your Girl Scout pin, commemorate your accomplishment when you earn awards, or simply make the beginning or end of your group's meeting special. You can also plan a ceremony around a theme, such as friendship or nature, that you wish to explore in thought, words, or song. Whatever its purpose, every Girl Scout ceremony enables girls to share in a special part of Girl Scout history and create their own special memories. - GSUSA

We've included ceremonies submitted by GSCB volunteers below - if you have a ceremony you've created or found and you'd like to share, please email a copy to jmarang@cbgsc.org. Thank you to those who have!
