Girl Scout cookies ordered from Girl Scout Council of Greater St. Louis members will be delivered during the next few weeks.For those who did not place an order or would like to purchase more cookies, Girl Scout troops will sell additional cookies at "cookie booths" throughout the council's jurisdiction. Cookie booths can be found at area supermarkets and other local venues through March 25.
For the tenth consecutive year, cookies are $3 per package.
New Sugar Free Little Brownies join seven returning flavors: All Abouts, Cafe Cookies, Do-Si-Dos, Samoas, Tagalongs, Thin Mints and Trefoils.All proceeds from the Girl Scout Cookie Activity stay within the local council to benefit area girls. Troops retain a percentage of the price of each package to fund activities such as field trips, camping and community service projects planned by the girls throughout the year. Proceeds also help the council deliver programs for girls, provide training and materials for adult volunteers, and maintain local Girl Scout camps.
To find a cookie booth location, contact your local Girl Scout or call the Girl Scout Council of Greater St. Louis at 314.890.9569 or 1.800.727.4475.
