The Volunteer Toolkit spark | connect
Are you excited to be a Girl Scout Leader, but wondering about the time commitment? The Volunteer Toolkit gives you meeting plans right at your fingertips! Need more info? Check out the training in gsLearn! The Girl Scout Volunteer Toolkit (VTK) is a comprehensive digital tool accessible on your computer, smartphone, or tablet. For all age levels, the VTK has several years’ worth of meeting plans already created. Once your troop picks its Journey or badges for the year, you can access all the content you will need for the entire year. Customize it to add your own activities or pull alternate activities from the Resource Tab.
To access, log into your MyGS account at gsep.org and select Volunteer Toolkit on the right side of the screen.
With the VTK, you can: • Manage troop contacts, track awards and badges, track attendance, and communicate with parents/guardians. • Help your troop (including older girls!) choose from many Journey Year Plans, a year plan for petals/badges, or a “Create Your Own” Year Plan. Multi-level troops will have a choice of all age levels to choose activities from. • Use the meeting plans directly from the VTK or customize them by deleting activities your girls don’t want to do and replacing them with new ones. • Search the Volunteer Toolkit for meeting aids and activities to customize your meeting plans. Discover much more online at gsep.org!
