Please read this important note about achievements to be recognized May 20:
As we near the end of the year, it's a time for girls to consider what achievements they want to be recognized for at our end of year ceremony. Parents, please connect with your daughter about this - April 23 is deadline for badgework, service hours and Level Award requirements (please see Girl Handbook) to be recognized at May 20 Evening Award Ceremony . Be sure to email/text Leaders to draw their attention to any badge requirements or service you log in the Handbook.
- Parents may document badge requirements met with parent's date and initials, then alert leaders with a note on the handbook AND text/email. Girls do the requirements that have a picture of their specific uniform, PLUS 1 additional requirement of girls' choice for Tenderhearts, 2 additional for Explorers and 3 additional for PiPas.
- Girls will receive service stars at award ceremonies based on the total hours she serves those outside her own home. Parents may document service time (with date & initials) on Handbook page 70. Please alert her leaders with a text or email.

UNIFORMS & INSIGNIA
- Please see Girl Handbook page 26 for correct placement of all insignia. New girls received their Joining Awards at January 8 ceremony and all will receive badges, service stars and level awards earned by April 9 at the Court of Awards Ceremony May 7.
- The Joining Award goes at top left if you earned the Level Award prior to your current level; otherwise it goes in middle of badges at bottom left, where badges are placed like a flower.
- Patches, Troop #s (we are KY #0252) & badges must be sewn on or attached with Badge Magic. All other known options fail and badges are lost. Lincoln Trail Boy Scouts at 12001 Sycamore Station Place will sew them for $4 per patch or number set. Or you may purchase Badge Magic for $6/sheet by emailing AHGCAL@gmail.com.
- Please encourage LOYALTY and RESPONSIBILITY by having your daughter wear her full uniform at meetings.

It's an honor to receive such a special gift! Our girls and leaders so enjoyed collecting items and making cards for the Marines last year. The experience of doing this together led to the creation of our Tribes.

Spearheaded by Leaders Heather Gregory and Andrea Wyndham, our oldest AHGirls lead their Tribe Meetings which occur during one meeting per month. This is an opportunity for girls to make connections with older and younger girls while practicing leading others and being a godly friend.
Tribes include the Cherokee, Iroquois, Navajo and Sioux. Each have created their own war paint and chant:-) Their time together will include teaching badge requirements (Native American, Home Care & Repair and Zoology), fun games and songs.
