Description

Light grey sash with patches sewn in with linen and pins clipped to the cloth. The top of the sash has a brown and yellow circular patch with a depiction of triangles overlapping which could represent teepees. The patch reads, "AYITA" which is a Native American Cherokee name that means, "First to Dance." Over the patch are five small pins that are pinned along the triangle shape. The pins include: a white calf, a blue deer, a green bison, a red wolf, and a yellow wildcat. Below that patch is another patch with the Sunbeam logo in grey, yellow, black. The Sunbeam logo depicts a rising sun. Below that patch is another patch that depicts a banner in grey, yellow, and black that reads, "Do Right." Below that is another patch in grey, yellow, and black that has a circular floral pattern and reads, "First Class." Further down the sash are five yellow pins with gold metal stars attached lined up in a row. The pins sit above eight badge patches that were earned and accumulated. On the back of the sash are an additional 16 badges that were earned.
