Girl Scout cookie sales under way
Girl Scouts Western Oklahoma (GSWESTOK) has announced the return of their eagerly awaited cookie booth sales.
Girl Scouts will set up booths at businesses across central and western Oklahoma offering nine different types of cookies, including the popular Thin Mints and Samoas. Consumers can find booth locations by going to GirlScoutCookiesNearMe.org and typing in their zip code.
“The Girl Scout Cookie Program helps build girls' futures, one cookie at a time,” said Kat Marran, interim CEO of GSWESTOK. “Girls gain the confidence, business planning, and marketing skills to help them succeed in life. This program gives girls the courage to explore new things and dream bigger. It’s about so much more than cookies.”
Each package of Girl Scout Cookies retails for $6. Proceeds from the cookie program stay with local troops, creating opportunities for girls to earn funds for troop activities and community projects. Girl Scouts Western Oklahoma is recognized as one of the top councils nationwide for the amount of cookie proceeds reinvested in local troops.
Consumers can support their local troops by visiting a booth through March 23.
