Girl Scout Ranger 19th Amendment Patch

The National Park Service and the Girl Scouts of the USA are commemorating the centennial of the ratification of the 19th Amendment with the Girl Scout Ranger 19th Amendment Patch Program. This patch program encourages girls to explore the complex and diverse history of women’s suffrage, the 19th Amendment, connection to national parks, and how important it is to continue to participate in our nation’s civic conversations.

Through March 31, 2021, Girl Scouts can complete program activities and earn a limited-edition commemorative ranger patch! Activities can overlap with key dates during the year, like World Thinking Day, Earth Day, Girl Scout Leader’s Day, National Public Lands Day, and more.

This program can be completed in-person or online!

Girl Scouts can research the women of Montezuma Castle for the badge here.
