It's Girl Scout Cookie Time

Girl Scout Cookies are available for sale until March 24th! There are 8 different flavors available: Adventurefuls, Lemonades, Thin Mints, Caramel DeLites, Toast-Yay, Trefoil (Shortbread), Peanut Butter Patties, and Peanut Butter Sandwiches. Each box of cookies costs $5.00.

All of the proceeds—every penny—from a local council's cookie activities remains in the area where the cookies are sold. This revenue is used to benefit girls, some of it directly by remaining in the Girl Scout troop treasury and some of it indirectly by subsidizing the cost of providing the Girl Scout program in the local area. Money from Girl Scout Cookies helps Girl Scouts of Rhode Island:
• Recruit and train volunteer adults to work with girls.
• Provide the financial assistance needed to make Girl Scouting available for all girls.
• Improve and maintain camp and other activity sites.
• Keep event/camp fees for all members to a minimum.
• Sponsor special events and projects.
