Spring Troop Management
4/6/2023
It's time to reflect on the troop's accomplishments from the year and start planning for next year!
Use the Spring Troop Management Guide to help navigate you through the spring season including:
- Celebrate the girls' accomplishments.
- Host a spring family meeting.
- Renew girl and adult memberships (and volunteer roles). April 21 is the last day to receive this year's free t-shirt.
- Submit the Annual Finance Report by June 15.
- Keep the fun going through the summer.
- Prepare for fall.
Is your troop is bridging this year!
Bridging ceremonies mark a girl's move from one level of Girl Scouting to another. Check out the Bridging Guide for everything you need to know about awards and planning a ceremony! Or get in touch with your service unit to see if they are holding a bridging ceremony for all troops.
Daisy, Brownie, and Junior troops can add a 'Bridging Meeting' to their 'Year Plan' in the Volunteer Toolkit.
Don't forget to check out our Bridging Kits!
These are great for Girl Scouts flying up to the next level! Each kit comes with a special pencil and bridging fun patch, along with a Bridging Certificate, Membership Star, Disc for Membership Star, and Bridging Arc.
Bridging Kits are available through the GSUSA Online store or GSDH Retail Store.
Reminder
Girls bridging in the spring will officially start their new Girl Scout grade level on October 1 and should attend summer events and camps of their current grade level.
