Girl Scouts of Utah

We love our volunteers! Every day, volunteers deliver on Juliette Gordon Low's vision by renewing their commitment to give every girl everywhere the opportunity to be a Girl Scout. Without our volunteers, there would be no Girl Scouting.

Girl Scouts of Utah recognizes the time and dedication our volunteers give. Every year, we strive to honor volunteers whose efforts sincerely focus on providing the Girl Scout experience, exceed expectations, and make significant contributions to the community.

The recognition system applies at every level and area of the council's structure and jurisdiction. Facilitators, parents, friends, Service Unit team members, staff, board members, and partners of Girl Scouting may be recognized for their support.

Our Awards

Volunteer Appreciation

Council Level Awards will be presented at the Recognition of Excellence Event. Service Unit Level Awards and Earned Recognition Pins will be presented at individual Service Unit events. Contact your Service Unit to find out when your local Volunteer Appreciation Event will take place.

The 2010 Recognition of Excellence was held on April 10. Check back later for more information on the 2011 event.
