2024 Camp Adventure Guide

Frequently Asked Questions Q. My troop opted out of cookie rewards. Can I still earn Trefoil Rewards? Yes! Girl Scouts in opt-out troops may still earn Trefoil Rewards. Q. Can I transfer my earned Trefoil Rewards to another Girl Scout? Trefoil Rewards may only be used by the Girl Scout who earned them and are not transferrable. Financial assistance is available to families with a need. Q. Will earning Trefoil Rewards give me priority registration for a program? Trefoil Rewards do not guarantee a spot in any program or allow for priority registration. All programs are first-come, first-served. Q. Registration for programs opens in December, but the Cookie Program isn’t done until March. Won’t most programs be full by then? Summer programs do fill up quickly. We strongly recommend you register for your desired program(s) once registration opens in December to secure your spot or get on the wait list. Once you receive the link to accept your Trefoil Rewards in March, you will check the box for the programs you have already signed up for and for which you want to apply your Trefoil Rewards. We will apply them to program balances in April, which may result in a refund for any deposit you already paid. Q. Can Trefoil Rewards be used for program deposits? Trefoil Rewards may not be used for program deposit fees or for events hosted by outside organizations. You must still pay the deposit to demonstrate program commitment and secure your spot. Q. Will you automatically apply any Trefoil Rewards to a balance? No. You must complete the Trefoil Rewards Acceptance Form. This link will be provided in the email and postcard communication that goes out in March. Q. Some of the programs don’t show themselves as eligible for rewards. Can I use my Trefoil Rewards toward one of these? Yes. You can apply your earned Trefoil Rewards as a discount toward one of these higher-fee programs, including LEAP, up to the maximum tier 1 program fee for other programs in that Trefoil Rewards tier.

Q. What if I don’t register until the later tiered pricing? We recommend registering your Girl Scout when the price is lower. If your Girl Scout earns one or two Trefoil Rewards and you are registering for a three-Trefoil Rewards program, you can apply the appropriate discount to the camp price at time of registration. If your Girl Scout earned three Trefoil Rewards, you must pay any portion of the fee over $415. Q. Can my Girl Scout carry over Trefoil Rewards? We realize that a Girl Scout’s preferred program may fill up quickly, or a Girl Scout joins later in the year and misses the earlier chance to register for camp. The Trefoil Rewards program allows for a one-year carryover. The carryover must be requested using the Trefoil Rewards Acceptance Form by Sept. 15, 2024. Q. If I don’t use all my Trefoil Rewards, can I carry them over? Trefoil Rewards are not gift cards and have no cash value. No remaining balances will exist to be applied to another program or carried over. Any use of Trefoil Rewards in a given year makes them ineligible to carry over. Q. How do discounts work if I have a returning camper/multi-camp discount? If you have a returning camper/multi-camp discount, the Trefoil Rewards discount would be applied to the cost of camp after the other discount has been applied.

One Trefoil Rewards Discount: 25% up to $130 Two Trefoil Rewards Discount: 45% up to $245 Three Trefoil Rewards Discount: 65% up to $415
