Tired of Repeating Yourself? Here’s the Troop Tool That Changed Everything for Us
When our previous troop coordinator passed the baton to me, I found myself juggling a dozen emails, Facebook comments, and text messages—every single week.
📥 “Where do I find the health form?”
💬 “When is the next event?”
📧 “What does my daughter need for her uniform?”
Sound familiar?
Our troop communication had become a tangled web of links and reminders scattered across inboxes. And when new families joined—many of whom had never even heard of American Heritage Girls—it became clear: we needed a better way to welcome and equip them from day one.
That’s when I knew it was time for something more intentional. Something beautiful. Something simple.
The Troop Welcome Page Template (Built in Notion)
I created the Troop Welcome Page Template to be the digital home base every AHG troop needs.
This all-in-one, customizable hub includes:
- Leader contact info
- Yearly calendar
- Slack channel link for streamlined communication
- Quick Start Guide (already filled with answers to common AHG questions!)
- Sister group & flag ceremony schedule
- Uniform guide
- Orientation packet
- Explanation of Adult Membership
- All About Level Awards
- Links to: health form, at-home badge form, troop dues, event sign-ups
- Helpful resources… and more!
It’s completely editable inside Notion, a free, beginner-friendly platform that lets you design your page, update it easily, and share a view-only website link with families. No logins or downloads needed for them—just click and go.
You can see an example video above of how simple and user friendly it is!
What Our Troop Leaders Are Saying
Here’s what our Troop Shepherd, Sara, had to say:
“Kelly’s resources are so helpful in organizing and making sure all the boxes are checked! The Troop Welcome Site is a one-stop shop for all the important information that our troop needs! It includes space for documents like health forms, troop-specific information, links to make payments, and even badge planning resources, which helped make sure everything was accounted for.”
It’s like giving your troop a digital binder—but one that doesn’t get lost, left at home, or buried under other papers.
Ready to Save Time and Serve Well?
This tool was designed with you in mind—so you can spend less time repeating yourself and more time pouring into your girls.
Imagine welcoming new families with one clean, thoughtful link that answers their questions, encourages engagement, and sets a tone of joyful order from the very beginning.
You don’t have to keep scrambling. Let this template do the heavy lifting for you.
Let’s build something beautiful—together.
