Girl Scout Service Centers - Girl Scouts of Greater Atlanta

Need Large Quantities
When needing large quantities (more than 48 badges, fun patches, more than six of anything else,such as gift items, clothing items
except sashes and vests), please call and place your order at least four weeks in advance in order to ensure that we will have su�cient
stock to meet your needs.
Girl Scout Catalogs
New Girl Scout catalogs are shipped each year (one per household) in July and August to all registered girls and adults. Extra copies
are usually available for new members in each of our stores.
Please support your local stores. Remember, when you shop GSGATL-owned and operated stores all proceeds return to local girl
programs. Our stores strive to provide you with one-stop-shopping for most of your Girl Scout needs! We thank you in advance for
supporting GSGATL stores. Your comments and questions are always welcome.
Licensing/Vendors
To protect the Girl Scout brand, volunteers should consult with the Girl Scout Badge & Sash Store manager for any merchandise with
the Girl Scout name, logo or trademark. If you need customized Girl Scout merchandise for any event or activity (e.g. Day Camp,
service unit event), the store manager will assist you with your needs. Girl Scouts of the USA requires that only licensed vendors use
the Girl Scout name and logo for events with fees.
Girl Scout Trademark
Protecting the Girl Scout trademark is important to all of us and ultimately bene�ts everyone in Girl Scouting. As councils work
with vendors, your support and vigilance will help ensure that all of our Girl Scout communications—visual, print, �at or three
dimensional—speak with one voice. The marks and insignia of the Girl Scouts are our cherished birthright to be displayed with pride
and used to identify local Girl Scout councils and their activities to the general public. Thus the responsibility for protection of the Girl
Scouts of the USA trademark and service marks are twofold; it lies with both the national organization and local councils.
To prevent the Girl Scout name and trademarks from being lost—that is, becoming a generic nonproprietary name—the National
Board approved a clear trademark policy. Implementing this policy requires cooperation between GSUSA and Girl Scout councils:
