A local scout leader shares this message with us...
It's that time of year again...
When girls are traveling the neighborhood asking you the familiar phrase "Would you like to buy some Girl Scout Cookies?"
So if Thin Mints are your thing, be on the lookout for girls dressed in various shades of blue, green, beige or brown selling that annual treat.
The cookie sale starts today and runs through March. The cookies will start arriving in town during the first week of March, and should be available for purchase throughout the month of March.
You might want to know why you should pre-order from your favorite scout, instead of just purchasing them outside the grocery store. Here's why: youcan keep your money local and guarantee your favorite flavor. Due to newproduct sale rules, booth sales will be limited and those ever popular ThinMints, Caramel deLites and Peanut Butter Patties will be the first to sellout.
And, if you're watching your waistline, but still want to support scouting,consider making a cash donation to send cookies to our men and womenoverseas or those staying in the local Veteran's hospitals.
When you purchase cookies from your local scout, $2.18 of the $3.00 box goesto your local troop and Girl Scouts of Western New York. The national organization does not receive any direct profit from cookie sales. This enables local girls to do lots of fun stuff like camping, hiking, serviceprojects, science projects and fantastic trips. Girl Scouts is not just crafts anymore.
