In Girl Scout, achievements are praised with various awards including Girl Scout Bronze, Silver and Gold Awards.

“Girl Scouts is such an iconic organization that it’s easy to overlook how daring an idea it was for founder Juliette Gordon Low to gather those first 18 girls in that troop in Savannah, Georgia. It was 1912, after all, and women wouldn’t earn the right to vote for another eight years.” – Anna Maria Chavez

History of National Girl Scout Day

The creator or inventor of National Girl Scout Day is still unknown. But the Girl Scouts came into existence when Juliette Gordon Low organized the first Girl Scout meeting in Savannah, with just eighteen girls from the surrounding areas. She spends so much of time in thinking about what can be done to guide the young women to get outdoors and become more independent. From the start, the Girl Scouts is an organization run by women, for women and it has grown to nearly 3.7 Million members worldwide in hundred years after its creation. In this organization, membership is organized by the age, and there are different activities are available at each level. Girl Scouts meet in groups called troop, where the volunteers will run the troops. Hence National Girl Scout Day is a perfect day to recognize and celebrate all the Girl Scouts which has done several things for various local communities around the world.
