Help Choose Our Spring Renewal Patch Design
Help choose the artwork that will be featured on our 2024-25 Spring Renewal patch! Our panelists have narrowed down the finalists and now we need our membership to pick the winner. The winning design will be featured on the Spring Renewal Patch that potentially can be worn by thousands of girls. The design winner will also receive a $40 program credit. Voting will be open between Feb. 19-25 - please help younger Girl Scouts share their opinions.
New Thin Mint Build A Bear is a Girl Reward This Cookie Season
Girl Scouts can take home a Thin Mint themed Build a Bear for reaching their cookie goals! This chocolate-colored cutie is among the rewards at the 500+ package level. Cookies have been moving fast this season, so even if your girl is running low in inventory, she still can hit her goals. Let customers know that they can place orders to be shipped directly to their homes until March 10!
Girl Scouts can also reach their rewards goals by encouraging customers to support our Gift of Caring program! We've partnered with area nonprofit H.E.R.O.E.S. Care to help share Girl Scout Cookies with active and veteran military. To help promote this patriotic campaign, we've provided a sample social media post, as well as a flyer that can be displayed at cookie booths - or you can help girls create their own posters and other marketing materials!
February is Black History Month! Girl Scouts are invited to choose from a variety of activities that explore themes of art, community traditions, and discovery to earn a patch. Let's celebrate the wonderful contributions that Black and African American communities have made throughout history.
This summer, girls can be fun, free, and fearless – all in a supportive space that’s full of friends. Girls will explore leadership, build skills, and develop a deep appreciation for nature. Whether for a day, a weekend, or longer, Girl Scout camp gives girls an opportunity to grow, explore, and have fun!
