Girl Guides WAI Aviation Girl Fun Patch!Women in Aviation International has created a Girl Guide fun patch to award to Girl Guides who take part in Girls in Aviation Day events. WAI’s Aviation Girl patch will be available exclusively through WAI chapters around the world to serve the World Association of Girl Guides and Girl Scouts.
Girl Guide fun patches are worn on the back of the uniform vest to show participation and interest in a subject or activity. "Since the inception of Girls in Aviation Day we have included Girl Scouts, so we created the patch to make Girls in Aviation Day part of Girl Scout culture,” said WAI President Dr. Peggy Chabrian. "We hope the girls will proudly wear their Aviation Girl patch and that it will serve to further promote an interest in aviation as a career and lifestyle.” Girl Guides who participate in our Winnipeg Girls in Aviation Day event on October 5th, 2019, will have the chance to earn the Aviation Girl patch. |
