There is a membership fee per school term payable at the beginning of the term. The current full fee per term is $110, but see discounts below for ways to reduce that fee. For members joining later in a term, the fee is payable upon registration and is calculated based on when you join. The minimum fee for part of a term is $50 to cover the affiliation and insurance fees. A discount is applied where more than one children in the family are members.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
You have plenty of opportunities to lower the cost of scouting being an active parent and helping the group and we hope you do.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n Besides we believe that no child should be denied the opportunity to become a member due to financial constraints. <\/em>Please discuss this privately with the Group Leader.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Our aim is that each section has at least one free camp (overnight activity) each term. This is a free activity although it may be extra costs related to transport.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Siblings<\/strong> – Additional GOSG Members of a family will receive a 20% discount.
