Brownies
(Grades 2 – 3)
Girl Scout Brownies try lots of new things! When you have learned enough about subjects like dance, cooking, or camping, you get a badge to put on your sash or vest. This shows the world that you are an expert in that subject! As a Brownie you will explore your neighborhood, your city and maybe even your state, through day trips and overnight outings. Friendship and fun activities designed for girls just your age begin at your Girl Scout Brownie meeting, where you work together as a group to reach goals like selling a lot of Girl Scout Cookies to fund a trip or planning a holiday dinner for a needy family.
