Safety Activity Checkpoints
For the last several years GSUSA has been working to make changes to Safety-Wise to make it more user-friendly, concise and clear. Much of the information that was previously contained in Safety-Wise has been included in the new Volunteer Essentials 2010.
The Safety Activity Checkpoints that were previously located in Safety-Wise have been completely updated and revised and can now be found on our website under the Events and Things to Do tab. Each checkpoint includes the same basic safety and qualifying information that was previously available, along with more specific steps to help you and the girls prepare for the activity, web links, and activity specific jargon. This new format allows you or the girls to download and print the safety checkpoints specific to the girl’s interests and can be easily shared by email with parents and guardians as needed. Additionally our council has included in the Volunteer Essentials 2010 an appendix with the safety checkpoints for the top most requested and participated in activities as a quick reference.
Effective August 1, 2010 our council will no longer be using any edition of Safety-Wise as a tool for volunteers. Please be green and recycle your copy!
