Cookie Season, Week 3a

Madeline Shandrew, Vivienne Atkinson, and Paisley Maughan.

Closing out the third week of sales, the girls sold 416 packages in town this past weekend.  These are great numbers considering they have been selling in town for the last two weeks.  Now, we are in the final stretch of cookie sales, with only two weeks left to sell our remaining 249 cookies.  As of Monday, the Juniors had 35 packages left, the Brownies had 108 and Daisies had 106.  The Cadettes sold out while at On the Run last weekend.  We will mostly have Thin Mints, Caramel delites (Samoas) and Peanut Butter Patties (Tagalongs), though we may have other varieties available, just ask.  We have a couple of determined girls that would like to reach their goals of 200, 375 and 625 packages.  They will most likely be selling cookies this weekend near Exit 13.  Check our Facebook page Malad Girl Scouts of the Malad Valley Personal Classified for our Pop Up locations this weekend.

Along with the $0.70/pkg that comes back to the troop, the girls earn rewards from council like a patch, color changing cup, flashlight, bandana, etc.  Though the other part of the rewards, the one that the parents actually appreciate is Program Credits.  They are an individual reward, acknowledging the hard work and entrepreneurial success of Girl Scouts.  Once a girl sells 100 packages of cookies she has earned $15 in Program Credits that can be put towards their Girl Scout membership for next year.  For every additional 50 packages sold, they get an additional $15 in credits.  If the girl sells 300 packages then they have paid for their membership for next year with $5 left over to spend within our council.  In theory girls only need to pay for their first year of membership and then have the opportunity to earn it each year forward.

Thank you to all of the leaders, volunteers and parents that volunteered their time so that the girls could sell cookies.  Stacey Clark (Leader), Brittany Donnan (Parent), Laura Dickerson (Volunteer), Katy Maughan (Leader), Makinzie Shandrew (Leader), and Kristy 
Zahn (Leader).

Cookies are $6 a package.  If you cannot make it to one of our pop up sales, please email [email protected] or call Kristy at 714-726-6687 to get an order delivered to your house.
