Ready, Set . . .
It’s a go for Girl Scout Traditions!
I have only gotten through two-thirds of the supplemental material, but I’m releasing what is done so far. I’ll continue adding to the supplements until December 2011.
For the most part, the badge programs for the Traditions set are very similar. The strength is in the supplements. Currently, I have 72 FOUND supplements and 75 that I have created.
Scribd and Google Documents have been adjusted. All Girl Scout-specific supplements will be placed in a collection named “Girl Scout Printables.” This will help anyone looking for Girl Scout materials by putting them all in one place.
I’ll start releasing badges tomorrow, starting with Girl Scout Journeys. The eight Girl Scout Traditions badge will come next. Lastly, the program for Girl Scout Printables.
On October 31st, I have a special announcement for all Girl Scouts!
So, I’m off for tonight.
Girl Scout Traditions Badge Set
UPDATE: All eight of the badge programs have been released for review.
Review should be completed October 16th.
The collections on Scribd and Google Documents for Girl Scout Printables will be updated and house all Girl Scout supplements and printables to help Girl Scout adults when looking for materials to support our 100th anniversary in 2012.
Supplements starting with FOUND are items found on the Web over the last ten years. Supplements starting with SUPP are ones I’ve created to support the badge programs.
Have a great day!

Friday deadline!
I will continue to take requests for our Girl Scout Traditions badge set through Friday.
So far, the requests I’ve had are . . .
- Junior level: Include the Dabbler badges from Worlds to Explore
- All levels: Provide lists of available badges
- Promise / law: Provide how it’s changed over the years
I have pulled all books and papers I have and will include all I can.
As a reminder, this will be a set of eight badge programs, six badges to cover the levels girls currently have, one for adults and a miscellaneous.
Working on another badge set!
We have three badge sets that you can pull steps from to create events, parties, etc. These are Digital Photography (4 badges), Fairies (5 badges) and Harry Potter (8 badges).
I have started on the next set . . . Girl Scout Traditions.
In honor of the 100th anniversary, I’m trying to get this done before the end of August. I’m planning on the following:
- Girl Scout Traditions: Daisies
- Girl Scout Traditions: Brownies
- Girl Scout Traditions: Juniors
- Girl Scout Traditions: Cadettes
- Girl Scout Traditions: Seniors
- Girl Scout Traditions: Ambassadors
- Girl Scout Traditions: Adults
- Girl Scout Traditions: Miscellaneous
I wanted to start with the program as it started at that level, doing activities from over the years (updating if necessary), then ending with looking toward the future with the three Journeys and Girl Guide for Girl Scouting for each level for the girls. The adult’s version would work more from the leader / facilitator / volunteer viewpoint. Then, miscellaneous will cover items that need to be included but are more of an overall program item or doesn’t really fit anywhere else.
I have many of the old books, training materials from my council and other items from when I was a Junior. If you have any materials you think might be incorporated, links that contain pertinent information, etc. I’d love to have to the information. You can email me at larajla <at> gmail <dot> com.
