Graphic Guidelines

The logo should appear on every flier, letter, or product that communicates about Girl Scouts. It must appear in the upper left-hand corner of the document Margin and/or clearance area around the service mark is determined by the height of the “g” in the service mark itself. Never change the configuration of the Girl Scout or counci logo.

 2. Which font shoud I use?

• Always use Arial as the font on all Girl Scout communications/fliers/products.
• The Arial font includes Arial Rounded MT Bold, Arial Black, Arial Narrow, and Arial Unic
  

3. What about colors? Green, black and white should always be used as the predominant colors. Girl Scout green is PMS355 or r0, g174, b88 In addition, age-level colors can also be used: Daisy (blue)--c80 m10 y0 k0           Brownie (brown)--c0 m60 y100 k65           Junior (purple)--c53 m100 y0 k0           Cadette (red)-- c0 m98 y85 k7           Senior (orange)--c0 m70 y100 k0           Ambassador (yellow-orange)--c0 m40 y100 k0           Volunteers (gray)--c0 m0 y0 k30

 4. What is the correct way to talk to/write about Girl Scouts?

• Always use “Girl Scouts”—never “Scouts.”
• Begin each level of Girl Scouts with “Girl Scout”-i.e., Girl Scout Daisy, Girl Scout Brownie, etc.
• Girl Scouts as an organization, is always singular, i.e., “Girl Scouts is the leading expert on girls’ healthy development.”
• In talking about Girl Scout members, you can use a plural, i.e., “Girl Scouts in Daviess County are selling cookies….” 

5. How should I use graphics and photos? Photo Cropping Guidelines: An image with 80% girl and 20% background feels immediate/personal. An image with 20% girl and 80% background shows contex/activities. Illustrations Sketchbook illustration is personal and on brand.
