Badge vs. Patch: What's the difference?
Badges are official symbols that indicate an increase in knowledge of
skill in a particular subject. badges can be earned at every age level
through the National Program Portfolio. badges are placed on the front
of the sash or vest.
Patches, sometimes called "fun patches" are emblems signifying
participation in a Girl Scout activity. patches are placed on the back
of the sash or vest. Think of it as a scrapbook of the Girl Scout
experience.
