∙ 12y agoSetting a limit of the number of girls in a Girl Scout troop is generally discouraged.
The main reason for this is being a "sister to all Girl Scouts".
However, if there are acceptable reasons for setting a limit, the troop leader can make a request to not add any more girls to the troop unless there is an opening. When there is an opening, the troop should be willing to accept the next girl on the waiting list.
Some possible reasons for limiting the size of a troop:
the size of the meeting place
the number of vehicles and adults needed to drive those vehicles
number of adults available for supervision and safety

Where is it a good idea to go with your Girl Scout money?
Making a decision of using Girl Scout money is a troop decision. The girls in the troop should make suggestions for places they would like to go, then check into how much it will cost and if the troop can afford to go, and then vote. As to the "where", there are many things to consider when making that decision. The level of the troop will limit how far you can travel. A local event would be cheaper than traveling a long distance. You need to find out if there are enough adults,a First Aider, and transportation.

How many Girl Scout cookies should you order first?
When placing a personal order, it depends on the kinds of Girl Scout cookies you like the best. Order at least 2 of each favorite and 1 each of the other kinds. When placing a troop order, look at how many Girl Scout cookies the troop sold last year and how many girls were in the troop last year. Find the average amount sold per girl and order that number per girl for this year. If your troop has never sold before, try asking another troop that was a new troop last year or a troop of similar age to the girls in your troop. Find out what their average per girl was and base your order on that amount.
