Bridge to the next level in Girl Scouting—in person or virtually!
Share in these unique events and special moments as girls take the next step in Girl Scouts.
This year bridging might look a little different than usual, but it’s
more important than ever to celebrate.
Girl Scouts are resilient, bold, and dedicated to changing the world through consistent action, no matter the circumstances. So as your girls transition to the next exciting step in their momentous Girl Scout journeys, let’s take a moment to honor all their accomplishments and growth—even in the midst of a very challenging year—as we look forward to an even brighter future; one filled with new badges, new experiences, and new discoveries!
Not familiar with bridging?
Bridging is a beloved Girl Scout tradition that honors girls’
achievements throughout the year and celebrates their “crossing the
bridge” to the next Girl Scout level. It involves a special ceremony
for the whole family to enjoy as you reflect on the past and prepare
for all the amazing things to come.
This is how it works:
Grade 1 Daisies bridge to Brownies
Grade 3 Brownies bridge to Juniors
Grade 5 Juniors bridge to CadettesGrade 8 Cadettes bridge to Seniors
Grade 10 Seniors bridge to Ambassadors
Grade 12 Ambassadors bridge to adults
And now Girl Scouts is offering a series of events and resources to celebrate and continue her Girl Scout journey, even from home and online!
If you can’t safely organize an in-person ceremony this summer, consider holding a virtual bridging celebration or taking part in one of our National Bridging Ceremonies. Choose one below and register today!
