What are Brownie Wings?

Brownie Girl Scout Wings show that a girl has completed her years as a Brownie. She is ready to "fly up" to Junior Girl Scouting. This is a tradition that goes back to when Brownie Girl Scout leaders were called Brown Owls. The wings are worn on the Junior sash or vest. The Brownie Wings are worn on the Girls 11-17 vest or sash if they have been a Brownie. The Brownie Girl Scout Wings are often given at year-end award ceremonies.
