Yesterday was our Girl Scout bridging ceremony.It took place at a park with a bridge running across a small river.Our familys (and relatives) attended and it was a dessert potluck.The actual ceremony took place on and around the river.We walked across the bridge and halfway across we dropped a daisy.The daisy represents Julliete Low, the founder of Girl Scouts, whose nickname was Daisy.After we did this we each presented something we had come up with.I read a poem that I wrote.
This Bridge by glimmer I walk across this bridge
A new beginning has unfolded
Where it takes me I don't know
It leads me where I go
In adventure I learn more
Than with a textbook on the floor
The daisy represents me
Just springed and full of life
The river is a sign of continuos flow
And I know that I will grow
Not just in size but in my strengths
I will gain in friendships
My friends have taken me on this journey
Friends forever and always together
My family teaches me how to love
They are my continuose support
I tell them that I love them,
In every smile I give
I walk across this bridge
A new beginning has unfolded
Glammer and I sung a traditional Girl Scout song, and the other three girls read poems they had written or helped with. Our leaders gave each of us a silver, uncut,key.The key was to represent us being able to unlock any door, including the door to the silver award.Glammer, Giggle, graffiti, and me (glimmer),were presented with the bronze award, the highest award a girl can earn in Junior Girl Scouts.The ceremony was a great success,and we are finally Cadettes.
