Volunteer Toolkit
>>Get Girls Outside - a
VTK Enhancement
The Volunteer Toolkit (VTK) is a digital resource that supports
troop leaders and co-leaders, making the process of running a troop
easier and more efficient. Check out some of the toolkit’s top
features below. Then watch the video playlist above for a detailed walk-through.
Through the VTK, troop leaders can:
- Plan the troop’s calendar year
- Email parents with one
click.
- View the troop roster, renew girls’ membership, and
update their contact information.
- View Daisy, Brownie, and
Junior Journeys and badges to plan for troop meetings.
o There
are three prepopulated year plans in the VTK for Daisy, Brownie, and
Junior leaders, with 15 meetings each. - Customize meetings
by troop year with other badge and Journey options.
- NEW!
Access the VTK as a multilevel troop (troops with a mix of girls in
Daisy, Brownie, and Junior levels).
- Explore individual
meeting plans that show a breakdown of every meeting, including a
list of the materials needed, and editable time allotments for each
activity within a meeting.
- Record girls’ attendance at
meetings and their badge and Journey achievements.
- Add
council or custom troop events to the troop’s calendar.
- Enter the troop’s finances (depending on the council’s
process).
- Easily locate resources, such as Safety Activity
Checkpoints.
- NEW! Access 18 activities that now include a
“Get Outside” option, which provides alternative outdoor
options.

What About Parents?

or group is doing (e.g, meeting information and which badges and
Journeys she is working on).
- Parents can also view the
troop’s finances (depending on the council’s process).
