One Sweet Extra Week for Cookie Sales: March 25-31

Hello Cookie Volunteers!

We are reaching out during this final week of the cookie season with so much gratitude for all that you have done to support your Girl Scouts this cookie season. It’s been so cool to hear your stories of support to one another. We know some troops and Girl Scouts are finished with their season while others have asked for more time. We are listening and for those who want more time, we are pleased to offer a “One Sweet Extra Week!” Read on for details.

The One Sweet Bonus Week will include these optional opportunities through 3/31:

Troop-secured booths which will be featured in the Cookie Finder
Digital Cookie will be open for local delivery and online direct ship and credit card payments, including payments for donations
Ability to take mobile credit card payments for in-person and booth sales

My troop/ Girl Scout is interested in the Extra week. What steps do I need to take?

If you would like to request a troop-secured booth, enter these into Smart Cookies starting on Thursday 3/21

What if my Girl Scout or troop still needs more time after 3/31?

First, remember we support you. We’ll provide added guidance for you in next week’s The Cookie Press. We are committed to providing you the support you need to wrap up the 2024 season.

My troop/Girl Scout is all set and is not interested in participating in the Extra week. What should we do?

Remind families to check email. All families will receive an email in Digital Cookie later this week with instructions on how to turn off cookies for local delivery

What’s staying the same as planned?

Troop and Girl Scout rewards are still due on April 2
Rewards will ship to Service Units as scheduled the week of May 27
Council on-demand cupboards will be open as scheduled through Sunday, March 24

Cupboard swap opportunities:

We will offer our Council on-demand cupboard location parking lots in Blaine, Columbia Heights, Oakdale, and Mankato locations as a meeting spot on Monday & Tuesday, March 25-26, from 12pm-6pm for troops that have excess inventory to connect with troops looking to pick up cookies to fulfill any last-minute orders or donations. For troops in the Brooklyn Center or Rochester area, the Camp Edith Mayo and Girl Scout office parking lot will be available. Cupboard staff will be on site packing up the contents, but the cupboard locations will not be open.

As always, if you have any questions or need added support to wrap up the cookie season, please connect with your Service Unit cookie manager or contact us.

Yours in Girl Scouting,

The River Valleys Product Program Team
