Obviously, there were some registration changes this year.  Girl Scouts of Eastern MO is encouraging all families to register online, if possible.  If your family requires financial assistance, you don't have access to a computer or aren't comfortable paying via credit card online, you can still do the paper form.  The additional change is that it is your responsibility to complete and mail in the paper registration to the Girl Scout Council. If you would like the paper forms that you need to submit, please let me know when you would like to come to my house to pick them up.

Any adult that stays in the cafeteria during meetings, drives to field trips, etc. MUST pay the annual $15 registration fee and must submit to a one time background investigation done by the Girl Scouts of Eastern MO .  Adult registration is also done online, but can be done via paper as well.  Just let me know when you want to pick up the forms.

Fees:

Because you are already paying the $15 annual fee to Girl Scouts out of pocket and the troop is financially stable, the will be no additional dues collected.  

I strongly believe in the girls raising their own money to pay for the things they want to do.  So, we will be participating in Fall Product Sales as well as Cookie Sales.  More information on that to follow.
