Girl Scouts: Meeting #25 - First Meeting of the 2013

Girl Scout Promise & Law

The values of the Girl Scout Promise and Law are at the heart of the entire Girl Scout program. Through the values inherent in the Promise & Law, girls form their own beliefs and values, learn to consider ethical aspects of situations, and are committed to social justice and community service and action. The Girl Scout Promise and Law are shared by every member of Girl Scouting. The Girl Scout Promise is the way Girl Scouts agree to act every day toward one another and other people, and the Law outlines a way to act towards one another and the world.

The Girl Scout Promise
On my honor, I will try:
To serve God* and my country,
To help people at all times,
And to live by the Girl Scout Law.

The Girl Scout Law

I will do my best to be
honest and fair,
friendly and helpful,
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.

* The word "God" can be interpreted in a number of ways, depending on one's spiritual beliefs. When reciting the Girl Scout Promise, it is okay to replace the word "God" with whatever word your spiritual beliefs dictate

Meeting #25 - First Meeting of the 2013 - 2014 Year

Today was the first meeting of the 2013 - 2014 year! The girls made their Kaper Charts, we planned the Investiture and Bridging Ceremony, and they designed their plates for our upcoming November and May camp outs. We took a bubble break and then made a Girl Scout promise and law bracelet. The Juniors had their first task as leaders - explaining and showing the Daisies how we end each meeting with our traditional Girl Scout circle.
