Special Information

  • Troops hosting a cookie booth during the 2010 Cookie Program Activity will have the opportunity to earn special troop cookie booth bonus recognition items. Cookie booths are a fun and easy way for girls to improve their Cookie Program Activity business skills and sell more cookies. Troop Cookie Managers have details on the program and bonus awards. Cookie Booths open February 26.
  • The service unit will earn a $0.01 per package incentive to be used for programming if we increase our 2010 cookie sales by 10 % over last year. Last year we sold 78,911 packages which means our 2010 goal (with the 10% increase) is 86,802 packages – an average increase of 10 boxes per girl. This would result in $868.02 for us to spend on the girls! We know our girls are awesome seller who can do this by setting both troop and personal goals and working to achieve them!
  • What’s New for 2010?

    • New Girl Scout Cookie: Introducing “Thank U Berry Munch,” a delicious new way for River Valleys Girl Scouts to say “Thank U” to loyal cookie customers. The tartness of real Ocean Spray premium cranberries is combined with the sweetness of creamy white fudge chips, and the texture of crispy rice gives this hearty cookie a satisfying crunch.


    • Additional award levels for girls, more choices for Cookie Credits


    • Improved Cookie Booth process with expanded options for troops


    • New opportunities for volunteers to network and move surplus cookies


    • Improved Cookie Care & Share process


    • Improved banking and final paperwork processes
