Event and Trip Insurance Enrollment Plans

Before completing this form, please look at the Activities at a Glance and the Safety Activity Checkpoints to see if your activity is considered "high-adventure". Activities such as hiking, camping, horseback riding require that a Trip or High-Adventure form (T/HA form) be submitted at least 2-3 weeks prior to the event. The T/HA form ensures that your troop meets all the safety requirements as described in the Volunteer Essentials and qualifies your activity as a council-approved, supervised Girl Scout activity.

Proceed with this form if you have already verified that your activity is not on high-adventure list and you need additional insurance for ANY person-girl, sibling, adult or anyone who is not currently registered as a Girl Scout member who will be participating at your meeting, trip, or any other Girl Scout gathering. You will need to purchase additional insurance to cover this person or people. Note that if an adult will supervise girls, she/he must register and complete the adult background check.

Lastly, be sure to read the Current Covid-19 Guidelines for GSNorCal Members to find our most recent updates regarding in-person activities.
