If Safety Activity Checkpoints do not exist for an activity you and the girls are interested in, check with Council by emailing [email protected] before making any definite plans with the girls. A few activities are allowed only with written GSGATL pre-approval and only for girls 12 and over, while some are off-limits completely. For age restrictions check the Safety Activity Checkpoint for the activity. You can request written approval from the Council by completing and submitting the Travel Approval Request Form

In addition to GSGATL’s four Council camps, Girl Scouts may camp on other Girl Scout Council campsites, or other youth agency camps; in state parks or national forests; or private campsites. These sites must meet the guidelines for troop camping in the Safety Activity Checkpoints, located on our Web site, and be approved by the Council. Troops that wish to camp on sites not operated by the Council should fill out a Travel Approval Request Form and submit it to the Council for approval at least one month prior to the requested date. It is recommended that the application be turned in several months in advance in case there is a problem with the proposed camping area. A volunteer should have a Troop Camper certified in Troop Outdoor Training and a volunteer trained and currently certified in first aid. All

volunteers accompanying the trip must be at least 18 years old, must be registered members of the Girl Scout Movement, and must be approved volunteers with a criminal background check on record that dates back no further than three years. As an organization committed to open membership regardless of race, creed, nationality, or socio-economic factors, Girl Scouts of Greater Atlanta, Inc. will patronize only those public accommodations that are open to all individuals.
