Girl Scouts of Northeast Texas Opening or Changes to a Girl Scout Bank Account STEP ONE To be eligible to open/sign on a GSNETX bank account you must have completed the volunteer application process within the last 24 months and have an appropriate volunteer security status. If you need to complete one go to: www.gsnetx.org/applynow. All volunteers who sign on the account must be listed. Once the process is complete, all volunteers listed on the account will be assigned an appropriate position for the troop or service unit (Treasurer). If changes are made to the signatures on an account, this form must also be submitted. Before opening a Girl Scout bank account, choose a bank and get a contact person at the bank. (Be sure to check that the account will be free or have a minimal monthly charge). Then complete this form and send to Robert Williams at Girl Scouts of Northeast Texas, 6001 Summerside Dr., Dallas, TX 75252; fax 972 349-2498; OR e-mail [email protected]. A letter authorizing you to open a Girl Scout bank account will be sent to your chosen bank within two business days after receiving your request if requirements have been met. Remember that when Girl Scout Troop funds grow to an amount over $100.00, GSNETX policies require a bank account to be opened unless those funds are being collected and immediately disbursed for GSUSA registration or an event.
