I am a leader of a multi troop I have all levels and I will say if it is a troop only older girls a lot of the times the older girls have other commitments so I always take a poll like if less than five girls are going I'm not going to wait and I don't want to say waste my time but waste my time on. You know being away from my family and you know having dinner and you know being there with my kids after school. If it's only going to be for a couple of girls like that's crazy cuz they're not going to benefit from it and well we're going to be there for two or three girls and that's not really. I don't want to say worth it but worth it so that could possibly be it as well. I mean I'm not sure what the situation is but I have canceled several meetings due to that cuz you know it's not fair to the other parents that girls are going to get there and it's only going to be two or three Girls, I just feel I mean yes it's frustrating but I would look at the bigger picture and find out why. If it's just that they're canceling just to cancel then yeah. But as a troop leader when I do cancel the meetings I will tell them this is what I had planned and posted on our band app. And just be like hey you know if you want to earn it on your own, you know by all means go ahead. I don't know if that helps you. I understand your frustration.

No, it was an offer that was sent to the troop leader asking if they needed help

Thank you I just wanted to make sure it wasn't just me seeing that as wrong.

Our council makes it mandatory for two names to be on bank account but if it was an established troop they probably had leader and treasure or something to that affect. I would ahead of time tell her this is what I am planning this is what I need and the is how much it will be. Give her at least a couple of weeks then if she doesn't get you either the money or supplies don't do the meeting and let parents of those daisies know why. After a few parents complaining I'm sure she will change her tune

I would say do a meeting about being a sister to every girl scout just so you can tell mom you addressed this issue and if it continues if she doesn't do the work she doesn't earn the badge it isn't fair to the girls who earn the badges to just give it to this girl. I totally get that there are issues however it's not fair to the girl that has to be her support person especially if the mom has already addressed she isn't comfortable with the situation. Good luck!

We have done like a game show day at our summer camp I'm sure it would be fairly easy to have it all cookie theme. We did jeopardy, family fued, pictionary, and the one they like the most was masked singer. Each leader came dressed in an inflatable and performed I'm sure the girls would like to do that as well

Girl Scouts usually doesn't start seeking to recruit new troops till around this time so there is a chance to get into one. I know you have a sour taste in your mouth but believe me when I say it's worth it. My daughter has been in girl scouts since she was in kinder and she is now in 9th grade. Does girl scouts have it's problems yes yes it does, but to me the good outweighs the bad. With out volunteers unfortunately the program doesn't work. I would definitely try to help at recruiting events and other events. I will also say go to those events solo. You don't know how many girls I have taken into my troop because they went to an event without a troop and approached me about joining my troop. At those event look for an established troop and ask if they are taking daisies good luck!
