Major in an Area of Discovery

As girls get older and start thinking about future careers, we encourage them to fully explore the areas they are interested in. Girls at the Butterfly and Eagle levels can earn a “Major” in any of the Areas of Discovery. To earn this award you must:

1. Complete 6 badges from their chosen area

2. Perform a minimum of 6 community service hours within their area

3. Shadow someone for a day that has a career in their chosen area (minimum 6 hours)

For example, if you wish to major in the Discovery of Art, you may choose to earn the drama, rubber stamping, painting, stitching, musical instrument, and singing badges. Then you might choose to volunteer 6 hours helping out at your local community theater or to teach an art class for Parks and Recreation. Finally, you may choose to shadow a graphic artist or a sculptor for a day.
