How to Register Girl Scouts is all about “fun with a purpose” where girls try new things, learn new skills and put them into practice in a safe environment. How do I register for an event? ⇨ Registration is handled by the sponsoring Program Partner OR Girl Scouts of Greater Atlanta (GirlScoutsATL /GSGATL) staff. ⇨ The event detail on the website will include information on how to register. ⇨ Program Partners will have a different registration link. ⇨ All girls must be registered Girl Scouts to attend an event (events advertised as family events are the exception).
If the event is managed by GSGATL please follow the instructions below: Register Online – ⇨ Start at our home page www.GirlScoutsATL.org. ⇨ Click the Events link. ⇨ Select the event list and search for specific event by title or with advanced search.

By Mail OR In Person – ⇨ Go to the Forms section of our website. ⇨ Completely fill out an Event Registration form. ⇨ Mail in the form with payment OR drop it off with the receptionist at our Mableton Volunteer Service Center. ⇨ Registration is not complete until payment is received.

What happens if the minimum registrants is not met? ⇨ Programs are filled on a first-come, first-served basis.

If I cancel, can I get a refund? ⇨ There is a 10% cancellation fee for all registrants who cancel two weeks or more in advance of the event date. ⇨ A refund is not issued if registrants cancel less than 14 days from the event. ⇨ If GSGATL cancels an activity or an event for any reason, a full refund (or event credit) is issued. ⇨ Refunds are made as follows: • Requests must be made in writing prior to the registration deadline. • No refunds are issued for registrants who do not attend the program. • Girl and adult membership registration is nonrefundable. *excluding Summer Resident and Day Camp.
Do adults have to attend the events as well? ⇨ Adult volunteers are needed at some programs to maintain the appropriate girl/adult ratio. If space is limited, once the girl/adult ratio has been met, no additional adults will be accepted. *See website for updated registration information.
