Patch Purpose
The purpose of this patch program is to engage older Girl Scouts (Cadettes/Seniors/Ambassadors) in preparing to be on their own - in short, how to "Adult". Once girls have completed steps to earn all the rockers, they should have the basic knowledge needed to live a successful life.
We have received the first set of patches and are fulfilling orders. Once the first set of patches have sold out, we will order a second set and so on as this is an on-going program. The full patch set is 5.5" in diameter and contains 17 patches. |
Patch Program Steps
The patch program is separated into four subject areas: Skills for Life, Personal Life, Financial Life, and Civic Life. There are four rockers per subject area for a total of 16 rockers that can be earned. The steps are presented below. To provide flexibility and choice, girls may do any 4 "small tasks" or a single "large task". Girls can choose to earn a rocker either way (by doing the small tasks or the larger task) and not all rockers have to be earned the same way. We want to meet girls where they are - so if they have earned some of the Girl Scout badges below, then they have also earned the Adulting 101 rocker for that area - it just means they have a head start on gaining their life skills!
This badge will continue to evolve as "adulting" needs change and is a on-going program of GSAlumnae*SF Bay Area. There is no deadline to order patches. If you have a skill that you think should be added, please contact us.
