# What are the costs?

## What are the membership costs?

Shepherd’s Girls has annual member dues and a required uniform. These are the most substantial portion of the cost of participation. Girls joining Emerald/Diamond also have a one-time $15.00 supply fee. For 2026-2027, dues are capped at $250.00 ($220.00 w/discount) per family. In addition to the per person dues, there is a $40.00 per family fee, which is paid once annually to either Shepherd’s Girls or Trail Life Troop NC-613.

For the 2026-2027 ministry year, The Shepherd's Church is graciously covering $15.00 of each member's dues, allowing us to offer discounted rates.
