10 Ludington Daily News, Thursday, September 3, 1964. New Program For Girl Scouting change and so do people. A few years ago a need was felt for a change in the Girl Scout program. Girls are growing up faster and peed different, more up-to-date activities, more challenging things to do, more self-governing and a new age group. A new program, which has been in effect since September, 1963, has four age levels, Brownies seven to eight years of age, Juniors nine, 10 and 11 years old, Cadettes 12 to 14 years of age and Seniors who are 15, 16 and 17 years olds.

The new program was designed by the Girl Scout program department and the national program committee as a result of an extensive study by Survey Research Center of University of Michigan. The base upon which the total program design is built has for its elements the Girl Scout Promise and Laws, service, troop government, citizenship, international friendship, and health and safety. The foundation enters the program through activities related to the arts, the home and the out-of-doors. Under the new program there are fewer troops, the present troops being larger groups where girls learn to work together.
