Girl ScoutSpirit Year

Live the Girl Scout Law and show you are a sister to all girls with these monthly activities! The goal of Girl Scout Spirit Year is to help connect us to our common values and the sisterhood of Girl Scouts. GSME has created this program for Service Units, Troops and Juliettes to participate in throughout the year.

This program can be done virtually or in-person, and we have provided links for the songs and other resources. Patches are available for purchase through the GSME shop. Participation and earning the patch is at the troop leader’s/Juliette advisor’s discretion. Please feel free to customize each month’s activities to what works for your girls. Have fun, and enjoy!

considerate and caring,

courageous and strong, and

responsible for what I say and do,

and to

respect myself and others,

respect authority,

use resources wisely,

make the world a better place, and

be a sister to every Girl Scout.June
