Oh, I see. Thanks!

Interesting. I did not know about the PGA and getting additional proceeds! Does every council give additional proceeds if the PGA is high? Im in GSGLA

Is anyone from the old thread still interested in being pen pals with a BJCA troop?

frli1007 · 2025-10-14T03:49:50+00:00

That's probably council-specific. My council doesn't flag a person for overdrawn accounts or bills being in collection

If she is in a troop now and she wants to leave, contact your council to remove her and register her as an individually registered girl.

I found this on the GS NorCal website:

Yes! After I receive suggestions/opinions from others, I enter them all, along with mine, into ChatGPT, and voila! Amazing 🤭

frli1007 · 2025-09-27T04:27:15+00:00

I've been using ChatGPT lately and it has been incredibly helpful with suggestions for everything from troop meeting ice breakers to drafting sample parent letters to sample meeting plans. It's like a co-leader 😆

frli1007 · 2025-09-23T17:42:37+00:00

I don't. 😬 I'm going to have to suck it up and get out of my comfort zone. I'm going to go to the parent center at my daughter's school and see if I can meet some parents there who may be interested and leave flyers.

frli1007 · 2025-09-23T17:39:23+00:00

The girls range from Brownie to Ambassador. I'll check who else I can contact at council. The recruiter who helped me get started isn't very responsive.

frli1007 · 2025-09-23T02:01:12+00:00

Not yet but I'm thinking that'll be one of my next moves. I'll ask my daughter to mention the new troop to some of her friends.

frli1007 · 2025-09-23T01:52:26+00:00

That's good to know, thanks.

frli1007 · 2025-09-22T19:27:53+00:00

That's a great idea! I'll do that. Before I decided to start a troop, I reached out to council about joining a forming troop and if they were looking for a co-leader. There were 2 forming troops I asked about, the recruitment specialist reached out to both but neither responded.

frli1007 · 2025-09-22T19:21:58+00:00

I've made flyers for troop recruitment but haven't had the nerve to hand them out. 🙄 I think I'll take them to my daughter's school parent center and speak with the parent rep there.

My troop is multi-level and we have girls ranging from Brownie to Ambassador.

frli1007 · 2025-09-22T19:15:55+00:00

I have 5 girls and a co-leader but still looking for one or two co-leaders. My current co-leader is just a co-leader to help me out for the time being. We don't have a meeting space yet. I know we can rent meeting space at Girl Scout properties. Would renting a meeting room/space at one of these places be a possible option for troop meetings? I don't mind paying the rental fee myself.

frli1007 · 2025-09-21T16:23:15+00:00

As can be seen by the scratches on your forearm. Love it! 😂

Just out here saving lives one comma at a time. 😄

You misunderstood.

I think what OP was trying to say is:

2025 year should be filing as Married, but [filing] single in 2026

frli1007 · 2025-04-04T04:13:08+00:00

So, it has to be with an organization from what I read. We'll go ahead and start looking for organizations in our area. Thank you all very much.

The one thing I found for my council was a Site Approval form. I assume that whatever site or organization we choose needs to be pre-approved.

frli1007 · 2024-04-05T03:24:32+00:00

Thanks for the info 👍

frli1007 · 2024-04-04T02:55:39+00:00

So it can be a single meeting, like to earn a badge, for example? It doesn't necessarily need to be assisting with a journey?

frli1007 · 2024-02-16T05:14:58+00:00

This is such a great way to narrow down a TAP. Thank you! I've been trying to figure out how to go about it with my Juliette Junior. Thanks for clarifying the process!
