Product Details

Inspired by the legacy of troops at the helm of adventure since 1934, this pin signifies membership as a Girl Scout Mariner and is worn by Girl Scout Cadettes, Seniors, Ambassadors, Adults, and Mariner alums. Girl Scout Mariners may wear it in place of their membership pin on the insignia tab, centered above the heart on the left side of the uniform.  

This vintage-style pin is a reproduction of the original, issued from 1934-1960. During both World War I and World War II, special programs on seafaring and aviation were developed for Senior Girl Scouts. Today, Girl Scouts nationwide are embarking on aquatic adventures and deepening their connections on, in and near the water as Girl Scout Mariners. 1¼” round. Safety catch closure. Imported.
Earn this pin by completing the following requirements within the first year of becoming a Girl Scout Mariner: 

• Know and recite the Girl Scout Promise 
• Know and recite the Girl Scout Law 
• Complete option A or B described below 
 A. Mariners ON or IN water 
1. Acquire basic swimming skills by swimming fifty (50) yards using any stroke, and treading water fully clothed for three (3) minutes. 
2. Select a watercraft or water sport. 
B. Mariners NEAR water 
1. Learn basic skills to prevent drowning. 
2. Select a focus area, such as marine or aquatic ecology. 
3. Study and learn the safety protocol required for the focus area 

Although most girls will pursue option A, option B exists for girls who want to become Mariners but are unable to access the traditional Mariner experience. Girls who choose Option B should work with their troop leader to determine which of the skills described will best support her safe Mariner experience. Girls who choose Option A should start by earning the pin, then complete water safety, and finally choose path one or path two to continue her Mariner experience.
