Renewing household members from the My Household page in MyGS
1. From the account page click on My Household in the left-hand menu.
2. From the My Household page you can renew adult members by checking the membership box. This will automatically add all roles that are eligible for renewal into the cart. Unselect any roles that the adult member is not continuing by unchecking the boxes. For lifetime members, simply select the roles that are being renewed.
3. For youth members, select membership and it will automatically select all troop(s) they are currently active in. Troop or camp participations that have lapsed (were not renewed last year) will need to be selected separately. You can also find a new troop for your youth household members from the “Add a Troop” button.
4. After selecting all household members you would like to renew, select the green “Add Renewal” button.
5. On the Add Details page, you will confirm the details of the adult(s) and youth(s) that you are renewing and choose payment type. Please note that this will only allow you to choose credit card payment, but you can apply for financial aid for youth members when you review your cart (see below).
