Keep the fun going! Renew now for another year of friendships, adventures. With you by their side, your Girl Scouts are making a difference.
Top reasons to renew your and the troop’s membership during the Early Renewal Campaign:
- Online features make it so easy to renew. Go to the MYGS link on any page at gsgcf.org and log in to renew yourself and the entire troop. Remember to select the boxes next to volunteer roles to renew volunteer roles as well as the membership.
- Troop funds should cover the renewal cost. The girls have worked hard to earn funds to support their experiences, reserving their spot in the troop and teach them self-sufficiency.
Reminder: Girls that sell 425 packages of cookies will automatically be renewed.
- You and the troop will be ready for another year and can start planning during the summer months.
- You and the troop will be able to jump right into the Fall Product Program immediately, which helps the troop secure additional funds for all the adventures ahead.
- Eligibility for special incentives for renewing early.
- Renewal helps the troop, the service unit, and GSGCF reach goals.
