Welcome to the 2011 Cookie Program!

This year’s theme is Starting Today inspiring change, with activities to help girls discover how Girl Scouts are making a difference, to connect with people in their communities, and to take action in their neighborhoods and beyond.

Alumnae Campaign: In preparation for our 100th Anniversary, we are rolling out an alumnae campaign with the aim of identifying as many alumnae in NH and VT as possible.  To do this, we are offering an incentive for one troop in each district that collections the most alumnae information through the cookie season.

The troop in each district that collects the most alumnae data (complete alumnae data means that all of the fields in the spreadsheet are filled out) will receive a pizza party.  We ask that during the door to door selling as well as during cookie booth sales that the girls ask each woman they see if she was ever a Girl Scout and if she would be willing to sign up to receive information about the council and about events around our 100th anniversary. Download the sign up form.

The Troop Leaders will collect the data from their girls and compile it into a spreadsheet prior to sending it off to Meghan Friolet, mfriolet@girlscoutsgwm.org, at the Council.  The winners from each district will be announced shortly after the last cookie booth sale is completed.  Questions can be directed to Meghan.
