Girl Advisory Board Applications Open
Want to meet other girls from our council? Do you have ideas about events or programs you would like to see the council offer? Then the Girl Scouts Carolinas Peaks to Piedmont Girl Advisory Board (GAB) is for you! As a part of GAB, you will provide input to what you would like to see offered at our council. This is a great opportunity to widen your leadership skills! GAB is open to Girl Scout Cadettes (7th grades and older), Seniors and Ambassadors. You can find the application and additional details here.  

Reminder: Troop Adults & Troop Driver Status
This is a reminder that GSCP2P now requires that all Girl Scout troop roles have a current adult membership and a cleared background check. This is updated from our previous policy that only members of the troop leadership team, the troop Banking Specialist and the troop Product Program Specialists had to have a membership and background check. Background checks are valid for three years and do not need to completed annually. 
 
This change has the biggest impact on Troop Drivers. Anyone who will be driving the girls on behalf of the troop must have an active adult membership, a cleared background check and an annual updated Add Driver Form. If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out to us at info@girlscoutsp2p.org or call 800-672-2148.
