2022 Treats & Reads Troop Manager Guide

Program Timeline

Nov. 7-30 Girl Scouts Deliver Product and Collect Money

Girl Scouts deliver products to customers and collect payment for order card orders. All checks should be made payable to “GSEM Troop xxxx (troop #)” with the customer’s driver’s license and phone numbers on the face of the check.

To avoid parent/caretaker last-minute visits to drop off money, you may want to set an earlier troop deadline for money collection.

Collecting money from parents/caretakers: • Receive the money envelope directly from parents/caretakers; do not have Girl Scouts bring money to school or have parents drop off money if you are not home

• Count cash and checks in the presence of the parent/caretaker and complete a money/product receipt, both sign, give one copy to parent/caretaker and keep one copy for your records

• Deposit in the troop bank account at least weekly to avoid holding large amounts of cash and checks

• Individual Girl Scouts can accept credit cards during delivery using Clover Go if your troop has already set it up. Once set up, they can accept card payments that go directly to the troop account
