Greetings!

Story1Cookies Are Here! 

Booth Sales in Full Force.

The 2013 Cookie Program is well underway. Did you know girls can customize the program to fit their needs? They can still use their order card and deliver within days, if they choose, or fill orders immediately! Don't forget - there are more Girl Scout Cookies available at cookie cupboards across the state! Check with your troop leader or troop cookie manager if you need additional cookies to distribute to customers.

 

By participating in the Girl Scout Cookie Program, girls learn valuable leadership skills like Goal Setting, Decision Making, Money Management, People Skills and Business Ethics. Plus, they earn great funds for their troop and fabulous recognition items!
