Gold Award Committee

Gold Award Committee

Girl Scouts Dakota Horizons is looking for members to join our Gold Award Committee who wish to help Senior and Ambassador Girl Scouts succeed in earning their Girl Scout Gold Award, the highest award in Girl Scouting.
The committee meets virtually on the third Tuesday of each month and reviews project proposals and final reports. They ensure that projects meet GSUSA guidelines, review each project’s size, scope, and cost, make recommendations for project development, guarantee that the project is appropriate to earn the Girl Scout Gold Award and provides a sustainable outcome, and ensure a consistent Gold Award process for girl members in our council. This will require approximately 2-3 hours per week with more being necessary when mentoring a Girl Scout on her Gold Award Proposal.

Committee members also mentor girls working on projects navigate the GoGold website and by guiding and supporting their endeavors, including mentoring and one-on-one coaching sessions via phone, email, text or in person. Committee members are encouraged to participate in the annual Honoring Excellence ceremony in June.
