What’s Your Favorite Girl Scout Cookie?


February 6th was National Girl Scout Cookie Day and The Spearly Center residents sampled these delicious famous treats.  Members of Colorado Girl Scout Troop 632 was our neighborhood seller.  What’s your favorite? Do-Si-Do’s? Thin Mints? Samoas?  Here are some Girl Scout Cookie fun facts:

• In the 1920s and 1930s, Girl Scouts in different parts of the country baked their own simple sugar cookies and sold them to raise money for their activities.

• The first national Girl Scout Cookie sale was held in 1936.

• Thin Mints is the top-selling Girl Scout Cookie in America.

• Each season, Girl Scouts sell almost 200 million packages of Girl Scout Cookies.

• For every box of Girl Scout Cookies you buy, more than two-thirds of your purchase price is put to use by Girl Scout councils in your community.

Girl Scout Cookie season is here!  Be sure to get a box or two!
