Help inspire GSWPA's next council patch



Juliette Gordon Low’s vision for the Girl Scout Movement was that it would be, and will always remain, girl-led. In celebration of her birthday today, October 31, GSWPA asks our Girl Scouts to take the lead to help our council develop our new Girl-Inspired GSWPA Council patch!

Use our online submission form to enter your artwork for the Girl-Inspired GSWPA Council patch.
PARTICIPATION: Submit your council patch ideas that demonstrate what it means to be a Girl Scout in western Pennsylvania.

 ELIGIBILITY: Artwork must be an original and created by a Girl Scout from the Girl Scouts Western Pennsylvania council. The contest is open to Daisies through Ambassadors! All mediums, formats, and shapes are encouraged and accepted. The deadline for submissions is Monday, December 17. 

 ARTWORK SUBMISSION: Use our online submission form to officially enter your artwork to be considered for the Girl Scouts Western Pennsylvania Girl-Inspired Council patch. You can upload your work of art or a photo of your work of art! 

 IMPORTANT NOTES: Elements of more than one Girl Scout's submitted artwork may be incorporated into the final patch design. Submitted artwork will be used to inspire the look of the patch, and the final patch may not be an identical replication of any singular submission. 

 If for any reason you have trouble uploading your file or completing the online form, please contact Melissa Gawlinski at mgawlinski@gswpa.org.
