Role of Silver Award Advisors |
|
|
The many adults who may help you through the process.
- Advisor – This is your troop advisor/leader. Her role is to guide you through the Silver Award process. Your Advisor may help you fill out the necessary paperwork, sign off on your requirements, and understands Girl Scouting and can help navigate you through the process of earning you Silver Award. Your Advisor does not do the work for you though. In some cases this person could also be your Project Advisor.

- Project Advisor (Consultant) – The role of Project Advisor is to be an expert in a particular field that directly relates to a girl’s Silver Award project. For example, if a girl is building shelves or cabinets as part of her project, it would be very helpful to have a carpenter as a Project Advisor. Another example is if you are doing a project on the environment you would look for a Project Advisor who has expertise in that field.
- Committee Contact – This is a member of the Silver and Gold Committee who will be assigned to you when you present your project to the Silver and Gold Committee. Her role is to make sure your project stays reasonable and attainable, and maintains enough scope in order to meet the Silver Award requirements. She is there to answer your questions, or to point you in the right direction.
