Dolly Parton and Tanasi Girl Scouts create a Coat of Many Colors diversity patch

Girl Scouts of Tanasi Council and country music icon Dolly Parton have worked together to create a new Coat of Many Colors patch program based on Partons best-selling autobiographical song about childhood poverty.

Girl Scouts recognize that 20 percent of U.S. children live below the federal poverty line. The Coat of Many Colors patch program teaches Girl Scouts that everyone shares universal desires for acceptance and affirmation. Tanasi Council designed the program and is piloting it.

All East Tennessee Girl Scouts are invited to a special celebration on June 13, 2009, at Dollywood, Partons Pigeon Forge, Tennessee, theme park. Special honorary seating will be provided for Girl Scouts who have earned the Coat of Many Colors patch. After the celebration, Tanasis Coat of Many Colors patch program goes national and will be available to Girl Scouts everywhere.
