[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why on earth wouldn't they pay for renewals, new vests, and planned badges? That is what we use excess money on.

In terms of parties - any birthday party activity - water park, rent a movie theater, mini golfing, bowling, iFly, laser tag, etc.[/quote]

This. The renewals aren’t inexpensive and the kids earned it. Reinvesting into the troop through dues can help build its longevity. [/quote]

I disagree. Not everyone comes back.  My DD stopped in elementary school because her troop never did anything fun.  I was never a Girl Scout and thought they were teaching a bad lesson. Work, sell these cookies, so you can give your money to someone else.

I truly have no idea what they did with the money.  Maybe bought badges and snacks for the meetings? They went on some horse riding badge earning activity far away once that they all said was boring. That was probably expensive.

Ask the girls. At their age, they would have preferred an ice cream party or something local to celebrate their cookie money.  Sweet frog or a pizza party or Zava zone - anything like that.  Just no to the air and space museum activity suggestion.  [/quote]
