2011 Daisy – Journey Badge Placement

This badge can go where #19 or #18 is stated on the GSUSA Uniform Guide where Journey badges are placed.

Note for Aprons – All Journey badges can go anywhere on the pockets. If sewing, be careful not to sew the pocket shut. Vests have all journey sets on the insignia tab side in any order. The traditional do not need to be on one side or above and below the other Journey sets.

The Outdoor Journey does not have to be in a specific order, or placement. Just place all 3 badges in the same area together. You can place badges as you earn them, you do not have to wait until all 3 badges are earned. If you never earn all 3 badges, these can still be placed on the Journey side/area of the vest/apron.

The Think Like a… badges can be placed without the Take Action badge for an incomplete journey and the Take Action badge added next to it later. There is no specific placement or order for these two badges, they just need to be next to each other to show a completed Journey.

It is an option to put Outdoor or Think Like a… badges where #10 (Skill Based Badges) are shown on the GSUSA Uniform Guide if no Take Action badge is planned or not intending to earn the Outdoor Journey, at all in the 2 years as a Daisy Girl Scout.

However, placing it where #18 is often preferred, even when there are no plans to make it a Journey. This frees up space for other skill-based badges where #10 is.

This also allows the option of earning the full Journey later without having to move the badge later. It is possible to put only the Take Action badge on the insignia tab side if the other badge was placed on the council ID side at an earlier time. Do not fret about moving it over, nothing requires you to do so.
