What is an Investiture?

What is a Girl Scout Ceremony?
A Girl Scout ceremony is one method used by members to express the ideals of the movement. It is also a symbol of honor recognizing a special event or circumstance.

What is an Investiture?
This ceremony is for both girls and adults. It marks becoming a Girl Scout for the first time. In this ceremony, girls and adults who wish to become Girl Scouts have met the GSUSA standards for membership:
• have paid national membership dues,
• accepted the Girl Scout Promise and Law,
• and are (girls) between the ages of 5 and 17 or (adult women and men) age 18 or over.
The person being invested:
• Says the Girl Scout Promise,
• receives the appropriate Girl Scout pin, and
• is welcomed into Girl Scouting.
