Gold Award Resources Scavenger Hunt

It's recommended that you save or bookmark these links as you go!
Let's take a look at the resources that GSSJC provides to help you be successful in your Gold Award journey and beyond!

We recommend completing this scavenger hunt alongside a supporting adult so that they are also familiar with the resources available to support you in your Gold Award journey.

It is essential that you are accessing GSSJC's Gold Award resources, not those from GSUSA or another council. Each council has it's own process for managing the Gold Award program.

Be sure when searching for these resources that you verify that you are going to a GSSJC site!
