The 2007 – 2008 Girl Scout Cookie Program theme is Ready.Set.Go! The Girl Scout Cookie Sale is a great all-American tradition passed on through many generations. The cookie sale is usually the first opportunity girls have to try their hand at being entrepreneurs. Girls take an active role in the cookie sale program, practicing communication skills, counting and sorting their product and collecting money. The business skills they develop are sure to be beneficial in every day life. Girls plan what to do with the funds that they generate, learning to be self sufficient young women. Girls know that through the cookie sale, dreams can become realities as they earn their own way to adventures that they plan with the guidance of their troop leaders. We will celebrate with all the girls as they experience the fun, friendship, leadership, teamwork and diversity the Girl Scout program has to offer. Girl Scouting helps girls grow strong. Come be a part of our celebration. The cookie sale also helps spread the fun and education to all the communities we serve. The funds stay within our council jurisdiction, to provide girl programming and opportunities to all our girl members. The variety of Girl Scout cookies sold by the girls may have changed over the years, but the message is consistent; we want to help girls develop a wide range of skills! Each year the cookie company, in our case ABC Bakers, determines the variety of cookies that will be sold. This year we are selling:
Girl Scout Councils determine when they will sell cookies and how much they will sell them for. This means that consumers will find cookies for a variety of prices and during a variety of times of the year. Where can I buy Girl Scout Cookies?
