TIGSC Adult Recognitions  

Adult recognitions are a means for adult volunteers of the Thousand Islands Girl Scout Council to be honored for their contributions to our organization.  While some may not feel that recognitions are important to them personally, as an organization TIGSC is committed to honoring our adult volunteers for their time, skill, and dedication to Girl Scouts.  As peers, it is our responsibility to nominate fellow adult Girl Scouts who meet the criteria for described adult recognitions, so that they will know that their service is appreciated and does not go unnoticed.

There are two categories of adult recognitions - TIGSC and Neighborhood recognitions.
