Nine groups of Girl Guides were formed independently in different parts of Switzerland between 1913 and 1919. In 1919 these groups joined together to become one Association, the Fédération des Eclaireuses Suisses (FESes). A major change took place in 1987 when the Fédération des Eclaireuses Suisses and the Scout Association, Fédération des Eclaireurs Suisses, merged together to become the Mouvement Scout de Suisse (Swiss Guide and Scout Movement).

The girl Scout promise in Switzerland is very straight forward. I promise that I will do my best to live by the Scout Law. I ask God and my friends to help me reach this goal.

Juliette Gordon Low is best known for founding Girl Scouts in the United States in 1912. She also started Girl Guide troops in Scotland and London.

During the Spanish-American War, Juliette helped her mother organize a hospital for injured soldiers returning from the war.

Juliette Gordon Low enjoyed standing on her head. She stood on her head every year for her birthday!

She enjoyed the arts and would write and act in plays. She also played tennis and was a swimmer.

Juliette had two nick names. One was "Little Ship" because she was so much like her great-grandmother who had been nick named "Little Ship Under Full Sail" by the Seneca Indians who had captured her and later let her return home.

Juliette's other nick name was "Daisy". When she was born, her uncle exclaimed "That's a Daisy!"

There is a story about pulling taffy. One of Daisy's cousins thought the taffy was the same color as her hair so they braided the taffy into Daisy's hair. Since taffy is so sticky, the only way to remove the taffy was to cut her hair very short, which was not very fashionable for females in those days!

There are more stories about Juliette Gordon Low's experiences at the GSUSA web site. See Related Links for the link to Juliette's Biography and then click on the Interactive Video photo at the top of the web page.

There are five different Girl Guide organizations in Sweden. The uniforms for the different organizations generally consists of a shirt and neckerchief. The colors of the shirts vary with the organization and the different age levels.

Since Juliette Gordon Low came from a family that was well-to-do, she never had what would be considered an occupation. She never had to work at a job to earn a living.

However, Juliette was very interested in the arts and created many sculptures and works of wrought iron, including a gate that is located at the Girl Scout National Center (or The Birthplace).

Because of Juliette's well-to-do upbringing, she felt unprepared for dealing with events in her life, so she found a way, through Girl Scouting, to help young women better prepare for their futures. So, her occupation later in life was concentrated on bringing Girl Guiding and Girl Scouting to girls around the world.

Juliette first started troops in Scotland and London, then came to the USA and registered the first troop for membership in Savannah, GA in 1912.

March 12, 1912

The first Girl Scout troop in the US was started on March 12, 1912, which is considered the day they were founded.

Note: The name of the organization is Girl Scouts of the USA (GSUSA), not GSA.

Each World Association of Girl Guides and Girl Scouts (WAGGGS) member country/organization sets their own guidelines for money earning projects for their members, so it is very likely that Swedish Girl Guides do not sell cookies. No information about cookie sales is available on the Swedish Girl Guides web site (Scouterna).

However, members of USA Girl Scouts Overseas sell cookies as members of the Girl Scouts of the USA (GSUSA) and may be selling cookies in Sweden.

According to several Biographers, the Girl Scouts" Founder was buried in her Girl Scout Uniform and there were various decorations such as the Silver Fish (British) and the Thanks Badge on the jacket portion. Presdumably the Hat was either not used or may have been placed at her feet(People don"t normally wear hats indoors or in Church. ) I have no idea what her religious background was nor if any religious items were on or around her body. several biographers agree she had an open viewing and was laid out in her GSa Uniform, there are differences in descriptions of various insignia, etc.
