    Request for Authorization to Open a Bank Account

  • Please submit this form if you are opening a troop/service unit/camp account for the first time or if you are closing a previous account and opening a new one (even if you are not going to a different bank). The Primary Signer (listed below as Signer #1) should be the person submitting this form.

    While you are free to select the bank of your choice, please be aware that some banks will have rules/requirements for GSLPG accounts that may make it difficult to open and maintain an account with them, and that GSLPG has no control over this.

    Based on previous experience, we recommend the following banks:

    • First Horizon Bank (Preferred Bank)
    • Barksdale Federal Credit Union
    • Red River Bank
  • Before continuing, please review the following policies regarding GSLPG Troop/Service Unit/Camp accounts:

    • Signers on GSLPG bank accounts are responsible for the proper use of funds and must maintain bank accounts per GSLPG Volunteer Policies
    • All money received relating to GSLPG activities must be deposited immediately into the checking account
    • Signers must maintain documentation of all transactions, including (but not limited to) copies of receipts, checks, and ledgers
    • Bank records should be made available to all Girl Members/their Parent(s)/Guardian(s), Adult Members, and other Volunteers at meetings or upon request
    • Singers must submit a Financial Report annually with all appropriate and requested documentation
    • GSLPG may request additional documentation at any time and Signers must provide all financial documentation requested to GSLPG in a timely manner
    • Signers must submit new account information to GSLPG using the Bank Account Registration Form within 5 business days of opening a new account
    • Any changes in account Signers (adding, removing, or changing signers, due to changes in leadership or for any other reason) should be submitted to GSLPG using the Request to Change Bank Account Signers Form in a timely manner
