Frequently Asked Questions:
1. Where can I find more information? GSUSA is updating the Convention webpage as new details are shared! Keep an eye on the 2023 Girl Scout Convention webpage!
2. The website says registration is open now, should I go ahead and register separately? No, we will complete registration for the group at one time.
3. What if we want to register as a family, volunteer, etc? You are welcome to register separately for experience and to attend on your own! This opportunity is for girls who would like to travel with peers or don't have an adult who is able to attend with them.
4. Will my Girl Scout be required to share a bed? We are exploring options for girls who are comfortable to save some money through shared sleeping arrangements at the resort hotels. As we identify the number of girls who are interested, we can provide additional information on what this may look like.
5. What methods of payment are accepted? In addition to traditional payment methods (Cash, Credit Card, Check), Cookie Dough and Financial Aid are also available to cover program costs.
6. This program is expensive! How are Girl Scouts expected to cover these costs? The program costs include a 3-day conference, transportation, food, hotel, and theme parks. The costs may seem high, but they are realistic based on current market conditions. Our Council is hoping to trim the costs to make the program more affordable to you in as many ways as possible. Having an idea of the number of interested girls will help us to navigate this better.
7. Why are you only taking Girl Scout Seniors & Ambassadors? Girl Scout Convention is a great opportunity for girls who have truly grown-up in the program to learn about how the organzation poperates on a National Scale! Having our "oldest" Girl Scouts allows us to provide a unique experience and helps us to organize chaperones in a more meaningful way.
