Welcome to Cedar City!

Cedar City Service Unit #440 serves Girl Scout troops in the Lebanon, Waynesville and Turtlecreek Township areas. Over 80 adult leaders help run more than 60 troops in our area and contribute thousands of volunteer hours annually. Girl Scouts provides an accepting and nurturing environment where, in partnership with committed adults, girls develop lifelong skills such as: leadership, decision-making skills, and social conscience by participating in activities that are fun and personally challenging.

Mission:  Girl Scouting builds girls of courage, confidence, and character, who make the world a better place.

Who We Are - Girl Scouts
Girl Scouts is the world’s preeminent organization dedicated solely to girls – all girls – where, in an accepting and nurturing environment, girls build character and skills for success in the real world. In partnership with committed adults, girls develop qualities that will serve them throughout their lives – like strong values, a social conscience, and conviction about their own potential and self-worth. In Girl Scouts, girls discover the fun, friendship and power of girls together. Through the many enriching experiences provided by Girl Scouting, they grow courageous and strong!

The Basics:  The Girl Scout program is divided into five age levels:

	Daisies (grades K - 1) Girls eligible to be Daisies are in kindergarten and first grade. Daisies govern themselves through the Daisy Girl Scout Circle. These young girls receive a certificate of recognition at the beginning and end of their year as a Daisy - however, there are no badges to earn at this age level.
	Brownies (grades 2 - 3) Brownies should be in grades two through three. Girls, as Brownies, run their troops through the Brownie Girl Scout Ring with a committee. Brownies may earn Brownie Girl Scout Try-Its, the Dabbler Badge, and the Bridge to Junior Girl Scouts patch.
	Juniors (grades 4 - 6) Junior Girl Scouts are in grades three through five.  Juniors are governed by Patrol systems, an Executive Board, or by town meeting. These girls have the opportunities to earn badges, signs, the Junior Aide Patch or the Bridge to Cadette Girl Scout patch.
	Cadettes (grades 6-8) These girls govern themselves by the Patrol System, an Executive Board or in a town meeting format. They can earn Interest Project Patches, the From Dreams to Reality patch, the Girl Scouts  Program Aide pin and patch, the Girl Scouts Leadership Award, 11 - 14 Girl Scout Challenge, Community Service Bars, Religious Awards, the Girl Scout Silver Award.
	Seniors ( grades 9 -10) Ambassadors(grades 11 - 12) Girl Scouts Seniors and Ambassadors abide by the same troop governmental structures as both Juniors and Cadettes. These girls are able to run their own meetings and plan their own events with guidance from and advisor. Senior/Ambassador Girl Scouts have the opportunity to earn: interest project patches, the Girl Scouts Program Aide pin and patch, the Career Exploration pin, the Girl Scouts Leadership Award, the Senior Girl Scout Challenge, Leader-In-Training pin, Girl Scouts Troop Assistant, Counselor-In-Training pin, Community Service Bars, religious awards and recognitions, the Ten-Year Award, and the Girl Scout Gold Award.
