How to Renew Your Troop
Log into MyGS, navigate to My Account, then My Troop(s). Here you will see a list of youth and adult members in your troop. If you lead multiple troops, you will complete the steps below for each troop.
Check the select all boxes for both youth and adults in your troop. You can uncheck the boxes next to any members who you are not planning to renew.
Do this for any members who plan to renew on their own or for those you are unsure about renewing at this time.
Troop members who are planning to request financial assistance or renew using program credits will need to renew on their own.
Uncheck boxes next to any volunteer roles that adults in your troop are not planning to continue to hold next year.
If a member of your troop does not intend to renew for the coming year, check the Not Returning checkbox.
Select the green button labeled Renew next to Member Details.
You will be prompted to confirm everyone’s contact information. Assuming there are no changes you wish to make, scroll to the bottom and Choose Payment Type. Then select Add Details. Repeat this process for everyone you are renewing.
Next, you will be prompted to review your cart and accept the Girl Scout Promise and Law. Make sure the correct number of youth and adult volunteers you wish to renew are in your cart and check the box I agree to the Girl Scout Promise and Law. Once this is complete you will be able to select Add Renewal.
Finally, complete the payment steps for the troop by entering your credit card information under payment, then click Submit Payment.
You’ve successfully renewed your troop! You’ll receive an email confirmation after your renewal has been processed.
How to Renew Your Family
Log into MyGS, navigate to My Account, then My Household. Here you will see a list of your household members and their participation.
Check the select all boxes for both youth and adults in your household. You can uncheck any troops or roles that you are not continuing with for the next membership year and check the Not Returning checkbox for these items instead.
Click Add Renewal.
On the next screen, confirm details for your household members are all correct.
Follow the remaining prompts to complete your renewal. You’ll receive an email confirmation after your renewal has been processed.
How to Renew Your Role as a Lifetime Member
Lifetime members must renew their volunteer role(s) each membership year in MyGS to ensure we have accurate information about how you are participating. There is no payment required.

Common Questions
Who can renew?
Adult members can renew themselves and any members of their household. Troop leaders can renew themselves and members of their troop (both adults and youth).
How do I pay for renewal?
Renewal can be paid online through MyGS using a credit card. Additional payment options include financial assistance and program credits.
To request financial assistance to pay for your renewal, select the financial assistance option on the payment screen. Financial assistance is available for annual membership renewal for both youth and adults. It is not available for Lifetime Memberships.
To use Cookie Credits, Fall FUNds, or Juliette Program Credits to pay for your renewal, select the program credits option on the payment screen. If you have paper Juliette Program Credits, please mail them to the St. Paul Service Center: 400 South Robert Street, St. Paul, MN 55107. To apply electronic program credits towards your renewal, submit the Electronic Program Credit Redemption Form. Renewal is not complete until credits (physical or electronic) are received and applied.
How do graduating Girl Scout Seniors renew as adults?
12th grade Girl Scout Ambassadors can be renewed by their caregiver in MyGS. They will be given the option to purchase an adult annual membership or a Young Alum Lifetime Membership. Details about Young Alum Lifetime Memberships are sent to graduating seniors the spring of their senior year.
What if my troop is disbanding or my troop of 12th graders are all graduating?
If your troop will not be continuing next year (either because it is disbanding, or the troop members will be graduating) please complete the Troop Disband Form.
