Alternative Troop Meetings
Alternative troop meetings are a great way for your troop to continue to meet when circumstances make it difficult to meet in person. While we cannot endorse or support specific online meeting tools for your use, we are aware of several tools troops and Service Units are using for virtual meetings. See below for a list of free and low-cost tools that could be useful to you. We encourage troop leaders to look at these and alternative options and discuss with parents and girls to determine what the best solution is for your troop’s needs.
