I am aware of and will follow these GSHNC policies & procedures: *

The troop leader is responsible for ensuring that each driver of a motorized private transportation must be at least 21 years old, hold a valid driver's license for the appropriate vehicle, and show proof of liability insurance. Volunteer drivers must submit the Driver Information Form to troop leaders. State vehicle laws must be followed at all times. Read all rental agreements to be sure you comply with their terms and avoid surprises. Note the minimum age of drivers (often 25), as well as the maximum age (often under 70). Be sure the car is adequately insured, knowing who is responsible for damage to or the loss of the vehicle itself. Vehicle insurance is the responsibility of the driver. Neither Girl Scouts, Hornets’ Nest Council nor GSUSA is responsible for damages done to vehicles while driven by volunteers.

Please review the Trip Training Requirements Chart for courses required for specific types of trips and verify that the appropriate courses have been completed by myself or the outdoor trained adult for my troop.
