WALK-TOGETHER PROGRAM

The Walk-Together program was set up for AVA clubs, who would work together with a Girl Scout Council in their area to designate an AVA walk as a program activity for girls and troops in the council's jurisdiction. The council would publicize the walk and perhaps register girls. The AVA club could provide the AVA Participation Patch for Girl Scout Walks as an award for those who participated for credit at this walk.
