Cookie training is required for all troops who plan to participate in the Cookie Program. ALL Troop Cookie Managers, new and veteran, are invited to join us in person at cookie training to support each other with ideas and encouragement, show our sisterhood, and navigate the Cookie Season together. Please see the Events Calendar to register for an upcoming Cookie Training near you.

Veteran Product Managers (Troop Cookie Managers) with two or more years experience have the option to complete the training online. If you do so, we will have your cookie materials ready for pick up at your local council office. Please RSVP for the online training so we can be sure to send you the link for the training once it becomes available.

Booth Support

Troops who are looking for extra support during Cookie Season can invite adults to lend a hand as cookie booth support.

Booth Supporters CANNOT:

  • Attend overnight trips with the troop
  • Drive Girl Scouts other than their own child
  • Count towards the Girl to Adult Safety Ratio
  • Handle troop funds

However, they may serve as the second adult at a cookie booth during Cookie Season.

To participate in the limited role of booth support, adults must sign the Booth Support Policies, Caregiver Code of Conduct, and complete a background check. Please see the Booth Support page to begin the process.

If adults are interested in fulfilling all aspects of a troop support role with their girl's troop, we recommend they become a Troop Support Volunteer.
