Bronze Award

The Bronze Award is the highest award that a Junior Girl Scout (grades 4-5) can earn. It is a 20 hour service project that is approved at the troop level. The Bronze award can be earned by a single Girl Scout, small group of Girl Scouts or an entire troop.

To earn the Bronze Award, a Girl Scout must complete a Junior Journey, then identify an issue that’s important to her, develop it and carry it out to completion. Girl Scouts calls this a Take Action project. It must be sustainable and benefit the community.

2024 Bronze Award Recipients

Troop 21739

The Girl Scouts of Troop 21739 saw a need to recycle soft plastic which can not be recycled with hard plastic. In 6 months they collected over 1000 pounds of soft plastic and through the Trex Company program, had it turned into a bench. Troop 21739 then built and installed the newly created recycled plastic bench at the preschool playground at St. Paul’s United Methodist Church.
