We had our end of year ceremony a couple of weeks ago - and it was so cute and precious and fun. I made these badge holders for each of the girls with a ribbon and foam and a hot glue gun. I left a little extra ribbon behind the name so I could fasten a safety pin on the back so they could attach to the Pathfinder and the badges wouldn't get lost. The hot glue on the badges (just a little strip) worked great (my own daughter tried to peel off the badges - which, they do come off if they are peeled).
Each unit had a table displaying what the kids worked on this year. I decorated ours with a creation quilt, ACT LOVE WALK canvas, personal flag, 1st meeting Pathfinder craft drawing, our CREED stick (pink streamers), an American flag, and the Pathfinder book.
Each unit did a little presentation. I printed out legal-sized papers listing what the girls accomplished in each stepping stone, and each girl got to tell about what they did (I had to coach them a little).
Then, my co-leader pinned their badges on their shirts and they got to walk over the bridge where the Tenderhearts were waiting to welcome them and give them their new book and uniform.
