Girl Scout Cookies with a Cause

I'm sure you've all heard the line, "Would you like to buy some girl scout cookies?" It's definitely been common conversation in our daily lives and it goes something like this...

 

"Hello, I'm a Girl Scout and my name is Bostyn. My personal goal is to sell 500 boxes of cookies. Our group goal is to sell 1,714 boxes of cookies so we can go on troop outings and overnights. You can also purchase cookies that we will donate to the Military serving overseas for our community service project."

So far this year, Troop 20556 has already taken several day trips with money they raised from last years cookie and fall product sales. Some of their trips have included a local corn maze, an educational day at the Air & Space Museum, two group parties and a visit to the Columbus Cchildren's Theatre and Spaghetti Warehouse. The girls have a few other trips planned this spring to earn more badges that include Archery and service with Relay for Life. All cookie proceeds stay in our community to help build girls of courage, confidence and character who make the world a better place.  

The 2011 selection is provided by Girl Scouts of Western Ohio and Little Brownie Bakers at $3.50 a box. They've teamed up to offer the Lemon Chalet Creme, Trefoil, Do-Si-Do, Samoa, Tagalong and Thin Mints. If you're interested in supporting a local troop, we'd love to take your order or ship some boxes overseas on your behalf. Just choose from the list below and message us the details!

Lemon Chalet Cremes uniquely designed to feature Our Chalet, this delicious vanilla sandwich has a hint of cinnamon-ginger spice and a refreshing zesty lemon creme filling.

Trefoils are light and delicious with a delicate tasting shortbread that is delightfully simple and satisfying.

Do-Si-Dos are a  peanutty excitement and "naturally good"! Crisp and crunchy oatmeal cookies with cream peanut butter filling and no artificial color or flavor.

Samoas are chewy and rich! A tender vanilla cookie, covered with caramel, rolled in toasted coconut, and striped with a rich, chocolaty coating.

Tagalongs are wildly popular - tasty cookies topped with creamy peanut butter and covered with a luscious chocolaty coating.

Thin Mints are extra thin and extra minty. A thin wafer covered with a smooth chocolaty coating. Made with natural peppermint.

From all of us at Girl Scouts of Western Ohio, Indian Lake Outfitters and Troop 20556, we thank you!
