The link above is a Ceremony Planner. Kaci, Tori, and myself will be using this to plan their end of year bridging ceremony. Also, is information on achievements needed to bridge over. Our group will greatly miss these girls. Great luck to you in Junior Scouts.
The following appeared on the On-Line Council Network for staff employees at Girl Scout councils, but seemed too useful to let it languish there!
Bridging to Junior Girl Scouts
Brownie Wings
Bridge to Juniors patch
A membership star with a green disc
Note: The Girl Scout pin is usually awarded at a special "Investiture Ceremony" during the next troop/group year.
You will need to pick at least one activity from each of the six steps to Junior Girl Scouting to learn what is at the end of your bridging rainbow.
Find out about Junior Girl Scouting.
- Ask a Junior Girl Scout or an adult who works with Junior Girl Scouts to tell you about Junior Girl Scouting.
- Find out about the awards (badges and signs) for Junior Girl Scouts by looking at a Junior Girl Scout sash, vest, catalog picture, or the Awards, Badges and Other Insignia section on Girl Scout central at http://www.girlscouts.org/.
- Look through the Junior Girl Scout Handbook and Girl Scout Badges and Signs. Find out about the badges, the signs, and the leadership pin. Look for differences between Brownie and Junior Girl Scout activities.
- Take part in a special event put on by your community service unit, council, or a Junior Girl Scout troop for Brownie Girl Scouts bridging to the Junior Girl Scout level.
Do a Junior Girl Scout Activity
Do an activity from the Junior Girl Scout Handbook or Junior Girl Scout Badgebook.
- Do an activity from a Junior Girl Scout Issues for Girl Scouts booklet, such as Connections, Read to Lead, Girls Are Great, or Media Know-How.
- Do a Junior Girl Scout online science or technology activity from the "Awards, Badges and Other Insignia" section on Girl Scout central at http://www.girlscouts.org/
Do something with a Junior Girl Scout or a Junior Girl Scout troop or group.
- Attend a meeting or event as the guest of a Junior Girl Scout troop or group.

- Write to a Junior Girl Scout pen-pal (mail) or key pal (e-mail) who lives in your area or another state.
Share what you learn about Junior Girl Scouting with Brownie or Daisy Girl Scouts.

- Put on a skit or special program about a service project or activity that you did with a Junior Girl Scout.
- Teach a song or game that you learned from a Junior Girl Scout.
Plan and do a summer Girl Scout activity. (If your Brownie Girl Scout troop or group has its bridging ceremony before summer, you can receive your Bridge to Junior Girl Scouts award before doing this activity. However, you should do the activity before your first Junior Girl Scout meeting in the fall.)

Help Plan your fly-up Ceremony
- Learn a new opening or closing that you can use in your flying-up ceremony.
- Write a poem, song, or skit about going from Brownie to Junior Girl Scouts that you can use in your ceremony.
