Girl Scouts of Eastern Missouri Kicks off 2023 Girl Scout Cookie Season
January 06, 2023
This Saturday, January 7, Girl Scouts of Eastern Missouri will kick off the 2023 Girl Scout Cookie season, one of the most iconic activities Girl Scouts engage in and the largest girl-led business in the world. This year’s cookie lineup includes iconic favorites like Thin Mints®, Samoas® and Tagalongs®, with the addition of the new Raspberry Rally®, the highly anticipated cookie, exclusively available for online ordering only.
By participating in the Girl Scout Cookie Program, Girl Scouts gain essential life and leadership skills as they build their business acumen, discover the power of marketing and learn the value of money. When a community member purchases their favorite cookies, they are fueling local Girl Scouts’ entrepreneurial skills, as well as helping to provide opportunities for girls to participate in amazing adventures like, summer camp, travel, and complete community service projects.
“The Girl Scout Cookie Program has taught me that earning money is hard work and it takes determination,” said Brooklyn Cummins, Girl Scout Cadette (6th grade). “The skills I have developed through the Cookie Program help me when I volunteer in the community, as I have the confidence to speak with new people.”
“I have learned to be my own boss with the Girl Scout Cookie Program,” said Annaliese Rheinheimer, Girl Scout Brownie (3rd grade). “The program has shown me that I have work for the things I want. My favorite part is delivering cookie orders to my customers!”
