Attention future Gold Award recipients
    Look for new guidelines for highest girl award

The following new guidelines to the Gold Award process become effective June 1, 2004. Anyone with questions should contact Deban Becker at 713-292-0203 or dbecker@sjgs.org.

1. Gold Award Orientation will be required prior to having the project application approved by the GAA Committee.

2. A prerequisite form, signed by your Gold Award Area Advisor, must accompany your project application in order to be considered for review by the Gold Award Committee.

3. Collection/donation drives should always be part of a larger project.

4. The project should benefit the community outside of Girl Scouting. The project should benefit a need in the community with the majority of the project being leadership based.

5. Applications must be submitted to Council on or before the first of every month for review in that same month. Applications received after the first of every month will not be reviewed until the following month.
The troupe wants you!
Join the coolest troupe in town! And we don't mean your typical Girl Scout troop. The Council Puppetry Troupe wants all girls in fifth grade and above to consider becoming a Council puppeteer. This year the troupe has added a whole new set of puppets, The Neighborhood Crew, to the already well-known Kids on the Block puppets. Council puppeteers are now writing skits to be used with these new faces. If performing or writing is something you enjoy, attend the next workshop in January 2004.
