Are You a Five Star Troop?  

 

The Five Star Troop Award is a Girl Scouts of Gateway Council award that recognizes efforts to ensure well-rounded troop program.  The criteria for the Five Star Troop Award can be used as a tool when planning your activity calendar.  The Five Star Troop application is available online and in Volunteer Essentials.

 

When your Troop completes the eleven required criteria, which include things like planning and implementing service projects and participating in a Service Unit sponsored event, as well as four additional criterion of your choice, the girls are eligible to proudly wear the Five Star Troop Award Patch. Patches can be purchased on the Council Store.

 

Congratulations to all of our Five Star Troops!
