Girl Guides and Girl Scouts

Girl Scouts salute the flag with their hands on their hearts. They do not use a military salute. Girl Scouts also participate in flag ceremonies.

Yes, Juliette Gordon Low was born in Savannah, Georgia on October 31, 1860, making her an American citizen.

She was married to William Mackay Low.

The Guias de Mexico AC or Girl Guiding Mexico level for ages 6 to 9 are called Hadita or Fairy. The level for ages 4 to 6 is called Girasol or Sunflower.

The value of a Girl Scout pin from 1962 depends on various factors. First of all, if someone actually wants to buy the pin and how much they would be willing to pay for the pin. The condition the pin is in would be another factor. A pin in excellent condition would be worth more than a damaged pin.

Also, the price you can get for a pin is always changing.

The best you can probably hope to get for a 1962 Girl Scout pin is from $5 to $10.

Russian Federation:

Rossiskaya Assotsiatsia Devochek-Skautov (RADS) or the Russian Association of Girl Scouts of all ages wear blue shirts and national scarf that matches colors of Russian Federation flag. The shirt has all the badges that girls own.

The Jordanian Association For Boy Scouts and Girl Guides Girl Guides member's uniforms consists of a shirt and neckerchief. Different colors of shirts are worn for the different levels. The color and pattern of the neckerchief is the same for each unit. Pants are worn which match the color of the shirt. Colors of the shirts are blue, khaki, red, and green.

For GSUSA, the five year Membership Numeral Guard is attached to the Membership Pin and then pinned to the right of the pin on the insignia tab or clothing.

Girl Scouts did not create the Peanut Butter Patties. The licensed companies which bake Girl Scout cookies are the ones who suggest new varieties of cookies to Girl Scouts of the USA (GSUSA). GSUSA has the final approval of any new cookie varieties.

The first record of any Girl Scouts selling cookies was that of the Mistletoe Troop in Muskogee, Oklahoma, which baked cookies and sold them as a service project in December of 1917.

Through the 1930's, Girl Scouts made the cookies at home.

Promesa de la Guía

Yo prometo por mi honor hacer cuanto de mí dependa para:

Cumplir con mi deber hacia Dios y México mi Patria,

Ayudar al prójimo, y Vivir la Ley Guía.

Guide Promise

I promise on my honor that I will do my best:

To do my duty to God and Mexico, my country,

To help other people, and

To live the Guide Law.

No. Juliette Gordon Low lived for many years after her husband died. Juliette died from breast cancer.

A group of Girl Scouts is called a troop or a group.

When a troop or group is split into smaller groups, they are called "patrols".

Yes, I believe they are. Because if you are in France, then the sashes won't be the same as they are in Japan. You can also either have a sash or a vest or a shirt.

Yes, they are. Each country has their own Girl Guide/Girl Scout organization and each organization determines the official uniform for their organization. Some countries have sashes and/or vests. Some countries have a neckerchief. It varies with the culture and climate of the country and even the activities the uniforms are used for.

The age levels for the Greek Guiding Association or

Soma Hellinikou Odigismou (SHO)

are:

Megali Odigos or Ranger ages 14 - 17

Naftodigos or Sea Ranger ages 14 - 17

Odigos or Guide ages 11 - 14

Pouli or Bird ages 7 - 11

Asteri or Star ages 5 - 7

So the Asteri or Star Girl Guides and the Pouli or Bird Girl Guides in Greece would be similar to the Girl Scout Brownies in the USA.

Girl Scouts of the USA

The first troop in the USA in 1912 was called 'Girl Guides of America'. A year later the name was changed to 'Girl Scouts of America'. In 1915, the organization was incorporated as 'Girl Scouts, Inc.' under the laws of the District of Columbia. In 1950, 'Girl Scouts of the USA' was re-incorporated under a Congressional Charter.

Juliette Gordon Lowe started a Girl Guide troop near her home in Scotland and two Girl Guide troops in London before she decided to bring Girl Guiding to the United States.

The Girl Scout Friendship Squeeze is used while in a Girl Scout Friendship Circle. The squeeze travels around the circle, sharing friendship. Many Girl Scouts use the squeeze to make a wish before passing the squeeze on to the next girl.

The squeeze can also be a way of sharing something. A topic is chosen and the girl may share something about that topic before passing the squeeze on.

The "blue card" is the form that the scout uses to track his progress toward earning a merit badge. The merit badge counselor checks off the requirements as they are done and when it is complete the scout turns in one section to apply for the badge and keeps the other for his own records.

Since the mid-1970's, Scout organizations have been banned inside of Viet Nam. A few semi-official Scouting groups exist in Vietnam at present, which include both boys and girls together and efforts are being made to reintroduce Girl Guiding/Girl Scouting into Viet Nam.

However, this makes it unlikely that there is a current Girl Scout Law being used in Viet Nam except for those who are members of Girl Guide/Girl Scout organizations in other countries such as USA Girl Scouts Overseas.

In some Girl Guide/Girl Scout organizations, particularly in the UK, a Brownie is given a Brownie Promise Box at her Promise Celebration, when she first joins Brownies and recites the Brownie Promise. It is meant to be used to keep their Brownie books and other Guide items. A Brownie can use her box as a place where she can easily find what she needs for the next meeting.

Juliette's favorite subjects in school were probably drawing, speech, French, and piano as she earned high marks in those subjects. She continued with drawing and other artistic endeavors such as sculpting throughout her life.
