Studio 2B Girl Scout Gold Award Insert
Correction
The most recent October 2004 second printing of the Gold Award
Inserts, UPC #20493, contains incorrect information on page
12. The incorrect text indicates that girls must complete
the Take Charge Focus book in order to earn the Girl Scout
Gold Award. Instead, any of the Focus book topics is acceptable
for the completion of Step 2 of the Gold Award requirements.
