There is an annual $10.00 registration/insurance fee to register to be a Girl Scout as a girl or an adult. This fee covers the cost of insurance and goes directly to our national organization, Girl Scouts Of The USA (GSUSA). If you are unable to pay this registration fee for a girl, our Council has a financial aid program to assist you. It is our strong policy that no girl will be denied Girl Scouting due to a family’s inability to pay the registration fee.
