One person is responsible for all troop funds and will keep a daily account of expenditures. However, be sure that not all the cash and traveler s checks are held by just one person at any one time when traveling. Decisions are made in advance concerning how to pay bills that come up prior to the trip, en route, and afterward. For overseas trips, most hospitals and doctors will require cash or credit card payments. Obtain hospital and doctors bills in English to expedite processing of claims with the insurance company after returning home.
Members take responsibility for personal conduct and equipment.
All girls and adults know what clothing and equipment to take, and how to use and pack equipment. When a troop or group is traveling in the Girl Scout uniform, provision should be made to ensure that all travelers have a uniform. The uniform should be worn correctly. Girls understand their responsibilities as travelers. Everyone is briefed on appropriate conduct and safety precautions in public places, restrooms, building stairs, escalators, elevators, and the selected forms of transportation.
