Hi, this is Sarah! I have been collecting Girl Scout council patches since March, 1999. I have patches from almost all of the U.S. councils. That's me with my WAGGGS map in the picture below.
Click on the table below to go directly to the section you want.
INDIANA: Tribal Trails (having a design contest! - I have an event patch)
NEW JERSEY: Morris Area (redesigning - have anniversary patch)
As of April 16, 2001 I have at least an event patch from each GS council in the U.S.A., just a little over 2 years since I started, BUT, I am still looking for old versions and new or redesigned ones. I am willing to trade 2 council patches or more for old designs. I also need extra patches to trade for my other interests, so go ahead and make an offer if I have something you need!!
As you can see two of the council patches I need are being redesigned, so I am waiting rather impatiently for them. I also trade for council pins and international trades, expecially Canadian Area crests and UK county standards, silks and metal badges (pins). I have links below to my other trading pages.
NEW OR REDESIGNED PATCHES I NEED
(If you have a newly designed patch that is not listed below, please send me a description. I may not have it, yet!)
CALIFORNIA: Tres Condados - new design
KANSAS: Wichita Area Girl Scout Council - last design before the name change to Golden Prairie - does not have yellow on the edge of the roof and the Indian's hands are small
GEORGIA: Savannah - current with trademark symbol after Girl Scout
KENTUCKY: Licking Valley - new wording
Also, whenever these newly named councils get a patch I would love to trade for one:
Mid South and any other councils I may have missed.

This is our newest Girl Scouts of Tejas Council patch! Council was not happy with the original design that used gold thread, so they redid it.
***I almost always trade with someone who needs my Tejas council patch!*** (The patch is 3 inches across.)
The patches below are old designs. I have a limited number of the blue and white one. Email me if you are interested.
