Myth Busters
"Last
month’s myth buster proved to be useful for a trainer. While at a
meeting someone was confused thinking that Camp in A was required for a
hotel stay. Our trainer was able to stand in confidence with
the correct information.
Do I have to turn in an intent to travel for a day trip (local or regional)?
No. But you do have to notify your service unit manager in writing of your plans.
I
am a signor on a troop bank account, however I am not the individual
who does the purchases or deposits. Am I responsible for mismanaged
troop funds if I never initiate any of the transactions?
Yes,
both signors on the troop bank account will be held responsible for
mismanaged troop funds. As a signor you share the responsibility of
performing checks and balances. To protect yourself we suggest you set
time aside once a month to ensure troop funds are being handled
according to GSK policy."
And - learn more about Sarai Gumm, who you may know from Louisville events or the Fall Kickoff:
