Girl Scout Membership Basics
Girls
Most girls belong to a troop that meets on a
regular basis (usually once or twice a month) over the course of a
year. Troops are led by co-leaders, trained volunteers who want to
make a difference in the lives of girls. However, girls are the
decision makers in these girl-led troops! Troops form year-round and
girls can join any time.
Girl member: $50 per girl
Financial aid is available.
Individually Registered Member
Busy girls who can't
attend troop meetings on a regular basis can still be Girl Scouts.
Girls can pick and choose events that interest them and fit their
schedule. They can participate in the financial literacy program and
sell Girl Scout cookies to help finance their Girl Scout activities.
Parents and guardians are encouraged to register as an adult member
with Girl Scouts to support their girl in her Girl Scout experience.
Individually registered member: $50 per girl
Financial
aid is available.
Adults
Parents are a vital part of Girl Scouts. We want
every Girl Scout's experience to be the best it can be and you as a
parent can make that happen.
Adult member: $25 per member
Adult members are registered Girl Scouts who support the Girl Sout movement. Members receive our Connect email twice a month wiht updates on council news, promotions, research on women and girls, and so much more. You are also invited to be part of our Girl Scout Network on LinkedIn!
Volunteers
Go on Girl Scout adventures with your girl when you sign up as
a volunteer! Or who says you need a girl? Be a role model when you
sign up with Girl Scouts. Whether you can give a few hours, weeks,
months, or more, volunteering with Girl Scouts is flexible and fun.
Volunteers: $25 per member
Volunteers are always welcomed and needed, but a minimum of two
registered, approved, and unrelated Girl Scout adults must be present
at every troop meeting. At least one volunteer needs to be female, but
men are welcome to volunteer too!
