National Girl Scout Cookie Weekend coming up this weekend, Feb 16-18, 2024

Girl Scout Cookie Season kicked off on Sunday, January 14, 2024, for Girl Scouts of the Desert Southwest. Councils across the nation look forward to the biggest weekend of the season, National Girl Scout Cookie Weekend, which will be held February 16-18 this year. This celebration marks a time when America's favorite cookies are widely available across the United States with each purchase supporting local Girl Scouts. In addition to cookies being available across the county, National Girl Scout Cookie Weekend provides consumers with the opportunity to witness some of the most dynamic girl entrepreneurs in action.

Girl Scouts in Southern New Mexico and West Texas are innovating their sales methods in ways such as: customized business cards, blinging their booth, mascot costumes, giving samples of the new cookie and strategizing new social media campaigns.

This National Girl Scout Cookie Weekend there are several ways our community can support these amazing girl leaders by purchasing Girl Scout Cookies. If you know a registered Girl Scout, support her and her troop by finding out how she's selling cookies â€”whether in person, online or both! Consumers who don't already know a Girl Scout can visit the Girl Scout Cookie Finder at Find Cookies | Girl Scouts of the Desert Southwest (gsdsw.org) to find a cookie booth near them, purchase from a local troop for direct shipment or donate Girl Scout Cookies to the Care 2 Share program that benefits local first responders, service members, schools and other deserving organizations.
