If you don’t see the patch, or any patch that looks a lot like it, in the patch placement guide for your daughter’s level, it is probably a Fun Patch.

Fun patches go on the back of the vest (or on a jacket or blanket) and become a scrapbook of memories for all of the fun things that your daughter has done as a Girl Scout.  Fun patches can also be put on a jacket or a blanket.

How do girls get fun patches?

• Many Girl Scout events include a fun patch for the girls who attend.
• Girls can earn fun patches by participating in the Fall or Cookie sale.
• Troops may vote to use some of their funds to purchase fun patches as a remembrance of fun things the troop does.
• Girls can also earn fun patches on their own by completing educational programs through Girl Scouts, the National Park Service’s Junior Ranger program, and other organizations.
