GSSN Council-Led Troop Program (CLT)
Council-Led Troops address barriers to participation by having troops led by council staff. This allows us to expand the reach of Girl Scouts to all girls in Northern Nevada. Council-Led Troops participate in all of the same types of activities as a Volunteer-Led Troop, following the National Program Portfolio. Girl Scouts in these troops will earn badges in STEM, Outdoors, Life Skills, and Entrepreneurship, work on higher award projects, and participate in the cookie program, while making friends that last a lifetime! Through these activities girls gain courage, confidence, and character.
Council-Led Troop members are required to pay an annual membership fee of $100 and troop fees of $165 to participate in the program. Troop fees cover the uniform, patches, and meeting supplies. Uniforms will be handed out at meetings. Financial assistance is available. Girl Scout membership runs Oct 1st - Sept 30th.
* Extended Year Membership Valid starting April 1, 2026 through September 30, 2027. Available to only NEW CLT first -time Girl Scouts for $126
