With more than 115 LINK Program Activities available during an average Girl Scout year, girls can earn official badges, fun patches, and LINK Lock & Chain patches, while exploring topics such as the outdoors, space science, and cybersecurity. Use our Program Activities List and Program Calendar to plan a Girl Scout year filled with new adventures.

Girls can sign up for activities as individual participants or with other troop members, and families are welcome to attend where specified. For troops and Service Units unable to participate in activities due to scheduling conflicts, our Program on the Go service is available. 

Earning LINK Badges & Patches

Girl Scouts who participate in LINK Program activities in each of the following categories will earn the entire LINK Lock & Chain Patch Set: Civics & History, Highest Awards, Excursions, STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering & Math), Life Skills, Fine Arts, Healthy Living, and College & Careers.

Activities are marked with symbols that indicate which Chain Patches you can earn, and Lock & Chain patches are available for purchase in our Council Shops.
