Program Aide Core Training plus COGS module is for Girl Scout Cadettes (7th grade and above) who have completed a Cadette LiA (Leader in Action) and enjoy working with younger Girl Scouts.  The Program Aide will learn to plan activities in which she can teach, lead discussions, or plan activities with younger Girl Scouts using the Girl Scout Leadership Experience (GSLE) processes of girl led, cooperative learning and learning by doing. The girls should understand that this course includes planning and presenting individual projects as part of the learning experience.

 

In the COGS module (Crafts, Outdoors, Games and Songs) girls will learn how to teach younger girls: outdoor flag ceremonies, outdoor safety, supplies and equipment care, knots and lashing, outdoor cooking, songs, games, and crafts. 

 

Cadettes (7th grade and above) must have earned one Cadette LiA prior to attending the Core Training.

Seniors and Ambassadors (no prerequisites necessary) can attend as well to work on their outdoor skills. However, they cannot earn their Program Aide pin as it is a Cadette only award. 

  • Any older Girl Scout that would like to assist with programs at day camp MUST complete this training.
  • This is EXCELLENT experience for older girls that aspire to be a part of our C.I.T. (Counselor-In Training) Program at resident camp.
