GSUSA Gold Ceremony

Gold Award Ceremonies recognize Senior and Ambassador-level scouts for earning the highest honor in scouting. These ceremonies celebrate the scouts’ extraordinary projects and the lasting impact they’ve made on their communities and beyond.

Common features of the ceremonies:

  • Each scout shares a brief summary of their Gold Award project, highlighting the purpose, achievements, and challenges they overcame, as well as how their work reflects the values of scouting.
  • Symbolic elements, such as candles representing the Scout Promise, Law, and commitment to leadership and service, are often incorporated to honor the significance of their accomplishments.
  • Key parts of the ceremony include reciting the Promise and Law, presenting Gold Award pins, sharing reflections, and celebrating with applause, photos, and heartfelt recognition from leaders, families, and peers.
  • Leaders emphasize the significance of the Gold Award as a symbol of exceptional leadership, dedication, and responsibility. They encourage scouts to continue using their skills and vision to inspire change and create a brighter future.

These ceremonies honor the extraordinary efforts and contributions of the scouts, offering a meaningful moment to reflect on their achievements and inspire others to strive for excellence.
