Volunteer Recognitions
Adult recognition is a way to honor adult volunteers whose services directly or indirectly support or enhance girl experiences in Girl Scouting. The quality of the individual’s accomplishments is a key factor for recognizing someone.
When an individual or group in Girl Scouting has served with unusual distinction for a larger geographic area, formal recognition may be appropriate. Honoring the service of our adult volunteers for their strong commitment and devotion to Girl Scouting is an established part of the Girl Scout program. These awards reinforce the qualities and service that Girl Scouting values provide.
Formal council level awards are presented each spring at the GSNEO Adult Recognition Event. Nominations and endorsements are accepted at any time throughout the year; but each year there is a cut-off date of February 1. Nominations/endorsements received after February 1 will be awarded at the following years’ recognition event.
Before nominating someone, check the list to see what awards they may have already received.
