"Fun in the Sun" Patch Program Girls can celebrate summer by earning the "Fun in the Sun" patch. Activities must be completed between June 1 and August 31, and are listed in the Spring G-O Guide (page 37).
Various activities can be done individually, with a Girl Scout buddy, or by a whole troop. Girls from Daisy to Ambassador can have fun earning this patch by trying a new sport, taking part in a service project, or even going to a Girl Scout resident or day camp.
