  • 2017 GSOC Gold Award Girl Scout Yearbook
    Recognizing Orange County 2017 Highest Awards Girl Scouts: Bronze Award Girl Scouts, Silver Award Girl Scouts, and Gold Award Girl Scouts Earned between October 2016 - September 2017 2017 HIGHEST AWARDS YEARBOOK GIRL SCOUTS OF ORANGE COUNTY The Girl Scout Gold Award Since 1916, Girl Scouts have been making meaningful, sustainable changes in their communities and around the world by earning the Highest Award in Girl Scouting. Originally called the Golden Eagle of Merit and later, the Golden Eaglet, Curved Bar, First Class, and now the Girl Scout Gold Award, this esteemed accolade is a symbol of excellence, leadership, and ingenuity and a testament to what a girl can achieve. The Girl Scout Gold Award is the highest award a Girl Scout may earn in Girl Scouting; it recognizes girls in grades 9- 12 who demonstrate extraordinary leadership through sustainable and measurable “Take Action” projects. A Girl Scout who chooses to “go gold” contributes to the world in purposeful and meaningful ways, learns how to identify problems, and creates long-term solutions and lasting change. As she designs, plans, implements, and evaluates her project, teaming up with others to take action in the community, she develops leadership, and becomes recognized as a community problem solver. Girl Scouts who earn the Gold Award distinguish themselves in the college admissions process, earn scholarships from a growing number of colleges and universities across the country, and immediately rise one rank in any branch of the U.S. military. Over the years, the Girl Scout Gold Award has inspired thousands of Orange County Girl Scouts to find greatness within themselves and to create sustainable solutions to issues they deeply care about.
