It's Girl Scout Cookie Time!

It’s that time again! Girl Scouts throughout Connecticut are taking orders for everyone’s favorite cookies!

The largest girl-led business in the world, the Cookie Program is a big part of the Girl Scout experience. What can a girl do? She’ll show you how, in her own way, she’ll become a leader and make important decisions for herself and in her community.

By purchasing a box of cookies, supporters are helping girls learn Five Skills that will make her a successful adult leader: goal setting, money management, business ethics, people skills, and decision making.

The same great eight flavors of cookies are available again this year: Thin Mints, Trefoils, Samoas, Tagalongs, Do-si-dos, Dulce de Leche, Savannah Smiles, and Thank You Berry Munch.

The proceeds from Girl Scouts of Connecticut’s Cookie Program stay in Connecticut and directly benefit all of the Girl Scouts in Connecticut, including the Girl Scout troop or group from which the cookies were purchased.
