The American flag is an important symbol to Girl Scouts. We wear it proudly on our vests and sashes, and if any of you have been to a Girl Scout event, chances are youve seen or participated in a flag ceremony. Flag ceremonies are the perfect way to start and end a whole host of activities, from special events to camp to Court of Awards or bridging ceremoniesor any other ceremony, for that matter!
