Check out the Virtual Events Calendar to see what’s coming up and to access recordings of past events.
Explore the meaning of appreciation and giving back with our Attitude of Gratitude Patch Program. Girls will learn how to apply gratitude in their lives, pay it forward in the lives of others, and find ways to show thanks to the volunteers who make Girl Scouting awesome!
Anyone can complete the requirements. Registered Spirit of Nebraska girl members can fill out this form to receive a FREE patch.
Girl Scouts are Go-Getters, Innovative, Risk-takers, and Leaders. These are all skills that are necessary to be an entrepreneur. Complete the Entrepreneurial Challenge Patch Program to learn more about the skills needed to become a business owner and have an entrepreneurial mindset.
Once you complete the number of activities for your grade level, you can purchase the Entrepreneurial Challenge patch online.
During this unprecedented time, we want to ensure EVERY girl has an opportunity to earn the new Explore Your Camp patch collage. Spirit of Nebraska has developed a patch program with a fun and challenging online scavenger hunt. Scour our camp pages, camp brochure, photo galleries, and more to find the quiz answers. Upon completion of your hunt, you will be directed to Juliette’s Boutique where you may purchase your camp patch pieces. You have the option to either buy the patch pieces all at once, or purchase a wedge each time you visit one of our camps. The choice is yours!
Girl Scouts Spirit of Nebraska also has a Global Action Days Patch Program that you can earn by participating in three of eight action days listed in the official Girl Scouts Global Action Days Toolkit.
There are plenty of amazing ways to keep busy with Girl Scouts from the comfort of your own home. We’re inviting all Girl Scouts to take the Home Sweet Home Challenge. Complete a minimum of 10 activities on this checklist to earn your Home Sweet Home patch. You can complete a combination of the activities for all ages and/or the activities for your Girl Scout level. Once you complete 10 activities, you can order the patch online or purchase it in your local Juliette’s Boutique.
Put together by the International BiPolar Foundation, this patch program educates girls about the brain and its influence on thoughts, feelings, and behavior. A Girl Scout activity packet creates awareness and understanding of mental health, leading to changed perceptions about seeking help.
Looking into the night sky can make you feel very small, but it also shows you how we’re all connected! On any given night, a friend or family member far away may be looking at the same moon and constellations you are seeing. Celebrate the unity our night sky inspires by completing this patch program.
Once you complete the required number of activities for your Girl Scout level, you can order your patch online!
Thank you for helping us bring Girl Scouting to more girls. Our mission truly would not be possible without the volunteers who provide girls stability in uncertain times and the encouragement and safe spaces they need to continue dreaming big, taking on tough challenges, and growing into strong, confident leaders. We’re here to help you! Everything you need to support your delivery of the Girl Scout Leadership Experience while at home can be found in the Troop Leader Blueprint. If you need additional guidance or someone to reach out to, contact your local Troop Support Specialist.
