Girl Scout Ambassadors
On August 26, 2006 the National Council of GSUSA voted to change the level system of October 2008. The Senior level, which previously included girls in grades 9 through 12, was split, and girls in grades 11 and 12 (around ages 16–18) became Ambassador Girl Scouts, the new highest level. Girls in 9th and 10th grade remained Girl Scout Seniors. Girl Scout Ambassadors wear the same khaki colored vest or sash as Girl Scout Cadettes and Seniors. Their membership disks are dark blue. New Girl's Guide to Girl Scouting handbooks were introduced in Fall 2011 for all levels.

Famous quotes containing the words girl, scout and/or ambassadors:
“The longer a woman remains single, the more apprehensive she will be of entering into the state of wedlock. At seventeen or eighteen, a girl will plunge into it, sometimes without either fear or wit; at twenty, she will begin to think; at twenty-four, will weigh and discriminate; at twenty-eight, will be afraid of venturing; at thirty, will turn about, and look down the hill she has ascended, and sometimes rejoice, sometimes repent, that she has gained that summit sola.”
—Samuel Richardson (1689–1761)
“Simone Clouseau: Jacques would make a wonderful father. He has many redeeming qualities, you know.
Sir Charles: Name one.
Simone Clouseau: Oh, he’s kind, loyal, faithful, obedient.
Sir Charles: You’re either married to a boy scout or a dachshund.”
—Blake Edwards (b. 1922)
“So we are ambassadors for Christ, since God is making his appeal through us...”
