A few friendly reminders:
- When the Silver Award project winds down, the outcome may not be exactly as planned. That’s OK! Girl Scouts earn the Silver Award as long as award requirements have been met. The most important outcomes are the ones you gain for yourself: improved confidence, better organization, stronger teamwork, and more. It’s less about the perfect final project and more about what you discover along the way!
- Finish your Silver Award Take Action™ project and Final Report by September 30 of the year you or your oldest team member completes 8th grade!
- Keep a copy of this Final Report for your records.
All Girl Scouts in the group MUST complete this form individually to earn credit for the Silver Award. Please allow up to 21 business days for the final approval email from the Council.
