Frequently Asked Questions
  1. I was a registered Girl Scouts last year. Do I have to register again this year?
    Yes, Girl Scouts must re-register each fall for the upcoming membership year. The Girl Scout membership year runs October 1 – September 30 annually. Lifetime memberships are available as well.
     
  2. Does my Girl Scout Troop have to meet every week?
    No. Girl Scouts leaders/advisors may set days and times with their girls and parents/guardians as best suits the girls. Meetings can be scheduled weekly, every other week, or even monthly.
     
  3. Does I have to purchase a uniform?
    Uniforms are optional.
     
  4. Where is the Service Center located?
    345 White Pond Drive, Akron, OH 44320, easily accessed just off I-77.
     
  5. How much is the membership fee?
    The membership fee is $10.00, and the lifetime membership fee is $250.00.
     
  6. Do I have to be a registered Girl Scout to attend Camp Ledgewood or come to a program event?
    All girls are welcome to participate in Girl Scout programming. We require a $10.00 membership fee to cover liability insurance during an event or camp. Many girls register annually simply to attend a camp session or program event. Girl Scouts is flexible enough to allow girls to choose the activities they wish to participate in and that is not always a “traditional troop setting”.
