Girl Scout Badges - Worlds To Ex

Girl Scout Badges - Worlds To Explore

Generally speaking these Girl Scout badges ran from the launch of Worlds to Explore in 1980, until the color-coded borders were phased out around 1999. However, many designs remain current.

Badges with white backgrounds were generally considered "group badges" and were launched in the 1986 handbook.

Badges with green backgrounds were for Junior Girl Scouts with an interest in the subject, but little experience.

Badges with tan backgrounds were for Junior & Cadette Girl Scouts with great interest and some knowledge of the subject. After 1995 Cadettes could no longer earn the tan background badges.
