MARIN DEL CENTRO has a Super Troop patch program, which encourages
and recognizes troops that complete a well-rounded Girl Scout program,
rich in traditions. Achieving Super Troop status requires
troops to participate in various activities throughout the Girl
Scouting year – many of which you will be participating in
anyway! Being a Super Troop means all the girls in your troop
must participate in the majority of the Super Troop requirements.
Where girls are required to earn Try-Its or Badges, they do not
have to be the same for every girl. Additionally, every girl
in your troop must participate in at least two service projects.
Use the worksheet throughout the year to record your activities.
As you plan your troop activities for the year, schedule in the
Super Troop items. The worksheet needs
to be turned in by May 1, and all activities must
be completed by July 31. Note
any plans or activities you will be doing during that time to meet
the requirements.
HINT: Keep the worksheet current to avoid
year-end panic!!
The ACT committee will review the worksheets at the end
of the year. After the worksheet has been reviewed, ACT
can order the Super Troop patches.
