This geocache was designed by our local Girl Scout Troop 40764
Juliette Gordon Low (1860–1927), also affectionately known by her nickname “Daisy,” founded Girl Scouts of the USA in 1912. She imagined a movement where all girls could come together and embrace their unique strengths and passions—and as Girl Scouts has done since, she made that dream a reality.
In Girl Scouts, the rainbow is a common symbol for bridging ceremonies, which mark a girl's transition from one level to the next. Bridging ceremonies celebrate a girl's accomplishments and welcome her to the next Girl Scout program level.
The rainbow symbol is associated with the "Five Worlds of Interest" in Girl Scouting, which are:
- Red: World of Health and Fitness
- Orange: World of Science and Technology
- Yellow: Exploring the Out-of-Doors
- Green: Junior Aide patch and a symbol of Girl Scouting
- Blue: World Citizens
- Purple: Arts Around the World
The Sign of the Rainbow also required completing other requirements, such as assisting a younger troop, completing the GS Ways badge, completing a badge about scouting in other countries, completing an art badge, and sharing discoveries with others.
Now for the Cache:
You’ll find the cache where birds build their homes.
Surrounded by the hiding places of gnomes.
To enter, find a perch a bird may have chose,
And simply pull on Pinocchio's nose.
