Attention All Troop Leaders -

Gluten Free Survey Results Due!

On T gs cookie hursday, September 4, a survey was sent to one troop leader from each troop to secure their commitment for the Gluten Free Cookie for the 2015 Cookie Sale. There are still many troops that have not yet responded. Please check your spam filters-the original email was sent on September 4, and reminder e-mails were sent on September 9 and September 13. The deadline for completion has been extended to September 22. After that date, your troop may not be able to get the Gluten Free Cookie, so please act now. If you did not receive a survey (and have checked your SPAM folder), please do the following: Check with your other leaders-only one per troop was sent. If no one has received it, email ljohnson@gssef.org and let her know. Be sure to include your troop number so she can check to see who it was sent to and make sure your troop has an opportunity to respond. You need to complete the survey even if your troop does not want any of the Gluten Free Cookies. Thanks!!

The online feature is meant to reach those customers you would not normally contact through our family and friends campaign. For example, a distant relative or family friends. Girls can participate in both the online and in-person selling or either of them. To sell online, girls will need to set up their online page.
