Girl Scouts of Northeast Texas 100th Anniversary Patch Rockers

Each 100th anniversary rocker badge is earned by completing one activity for the corresponding category. Suggestions are listed for each category, but leaders and girls may also develop their own activity as long as it relates to the category. Activities should be program grade level appropriate with increasing levels of challenge as the girls get older. If learning Girl Scout history is fun for your troop, create an activity related to the past in some of the categories. Most importantly, all of the activities to earn each rocker should be fun for the girls and come from the girls' ideas and interests.
