The Gold Award is the highest award a Girl Scout can earn. Recipients are high school Girl Scouts who identify an issue and complete meaningful projects to contribute lasting change. This year Girl Scouts of Kentuckiana has recognized seven Gold Award Girl Scouts from across central Kentucky and Southern Indiana. At this Elizabethtown ceremony we will celebrate Teddy Anderson from Mt. Washington, KY as a recipient of the Gold Award.
