The Girl Scouts of Colonial Coast Board of Directors recently completed a review of Volunteer Policies. These updated policies are here. Learn more.
Note: Finance Policy #5 now indicates that "any financial contribution to the troop, service unit, or Community must be deposited through the Council." This also applies to those working towards Girl Scout awards. Effective immediately, there is no longer 10% council processing fee.
Ensuring the health and safety of girls in Girl Scouting is a cornerstone of the Girl Scout Movement. This includes developing safety consciousness in both girls and adults, as well as training staff, volunteers, and girls to ensure proper supervision, planning to prevent accidents and incidents, and maintenance of program resources (includes good stewardship of Girl Scout funds).
Everyone bears responsibility for safety: the Council, the group leadership, the parents/guardians of the girls and the girls themselves.
Thank you for all you do to make sure Girl Scouting is fun and safe!
