You may pay monthly or upfront for the entire year ($165 per girl).
MEETING TIMES
Meetings start at promptly at 4:30pm. Please make sure you arrive PRIOR to 4:30pm to ensure not disrupting of the meeting. We have had many girls arrive late and we have had to stop and readdress issues that were already dicussed. We will no longer be doing this. Please be on time, everytime. Please do not call to tell a leader you are on your way-that disrupts a meeting already in progress. PARENTS- if you have any questions or financial matters that you need to address with a leader, please do so prior to 4:30pm or after 6:30pm.

 Welcome to GSSGC Troop 1041's website
We are a troop located in Southern California. We are comprised of 12 Juniors, and 6 Cadettes. We enjoy many opportunities as Girl Scouts to give back to our community, such as food pantry donations that we have made as part of our meeting dues, blankets for the homeless, community park and beach clean-ups, clothing/toy donations for the area's needy residents, visiting our elder friends at the convalescent homes and hand-made animal toys and supplies for the local shelter. Each October 31st we honor Girl Scouts of America founder, Juliette Low, by taking new baby-girl gift baskets with items donated by our troop's girls to our local area hospitals for baby girls born on Mrs. Low's birthday. We also take part in many service area and council events. Our Cadette girls volunteer as Program Aides for our service area's day camp, as well as assist other younger level troops as individual aides and older-girl friends. We are proud of our Cadettes as three of them have been certified in CPR/First Aid/Babysitting. As a troop we enjoy a wide variety of pursuits such as community theater, museums visits, hiking, camping, snow days, movie days, bowling, ice skating and many more. We hope you like our website!
If you are interested in becoming involved in Girl Scouts as
a volunteer, leader, or girl,
please call your local council or GSSGC at (800) 400-4475
