Registration Information for the 2026-2027 Girl Scout Year

Registration for the 2026-2027 Girl Scout year is now open.  Parents can register themselves and their daughters at any time throughout the year here.  Registration dues for girls are $80 and are $30 for adults. If you have any questions regarding registration please contact us at chathamnjgirlscoutsrc@gmail.com.

SERVICE UNIT DUES: Leaders must submit Chatham Girl Scouts Service Unit dues to our Service Unit Treasurer, Erica Kolodziej. In order for Chatham Girl Scouts to run successful service unit activities and programs, assist girls with their higher award projects and cover administrative expenses, we ask that every troop pay $10 for each registered girl in their troop.

Dues can be paid either via Cheddar Up (a fee for processing will automatically be included: Credit Cards: 3.59% + $0.59 & eChecks: Flat $0.59 ) or cash or check (made payable to Chatham Girl Scouts) which can be dropped off to Erica Kolodziej, the Treasurer, at 127 Chatham St. Please, one payment per troop. 

In addition to the dues payment for the troop, you should provide the following:

1. Signed copy of the leader agreement for all of the leaders in your troop.

2. Roster showing all of the active, registered girls in your troop (see details below on providing).

TROOP ROSTER: Please provide a screenshot of your registered members to confirm the total amount of dues paid.

Please see these instruction - Directions for Sending Active Roster on how to see if all the girls in your troop are registered and eligible to participate in activities for the year.

The screenshot of the leader agreement and active members should be emailed to chathamgstreasurer@gmail.com or dropped off at 127 Chatham St.

Please don't hesitate to reach out with any questions to Erica Kolodziej at  chathamgstreasurergmail.com  or 773-230-9635.
