Girl Scout Cookies are Coming Soon
Girl Scouts of Southern Arizona (GSSOAZ) are now selling all of your favorites including the brownie-inspired Adventurefuls cookie.
WHAT: Pima County Cookie Drops
WHEN: Friday, January 20, Noon – 5 p.m.
WHERE: 10801 N La Cholla Blvd., Tucson, AZ 85742
4051 S Longfellow Ave, Tucson AZ
Tucson, Arizona (January, 16, 2023) — On January 20, Girl Scout Cookies will be distributed to Girl Scout troops across Pima County at the annual Cookie Drop. The Cookie Drop allows troops to fill their cars, vans, trucks, and trailers with cookies. Girl Scouts start selling cookies, throughout Southern Arizona, on January 21. To locate Girl Scout cookies in your community, visit www.girlscoutcookies.org.
Participation in the world’s largest entrepreneurial program for young women, the Girl Scout Cookie, first begins with incredible volunteers taking the lead to pick up the troops inventory and then distribute it out to all their Girl Scouts. Cookie Drop days, like today, are an incredible orchestration of community, staff and those exceptional volunteers coming together to help our local Southern Arizona Girl Scouts get prepared for their first day of cookies
GSSOAZ CEO Kristen Garcia-Hernandez stated, “When customers buy cookies, they are doing so much more than purchasing a box of cookies. They are investing in their hometown Girl Scouts and they are creating a space for Girl Scouts to become confident leaders, by learning the five key life skills like goal setting, decision-making, money management, people skills, and business ethics, which rest firmly upon a foundation of self-esteem. We are thrilled to provide new ways for all of those in our community to experience this one-of-a-kind Girl Scout tradition. Look for door-to-door, drive-through, and cookie booths starting January 21”
Looking for the new Raspberry Rally cookie? The newest addition to the Girl Scout cookie family is available for purchase online only beginning February 27. This is also the date that the Direct Ship cookie ordering platform opens! Expect more details about how to get a taste of this newest delicious cookie in February. Also back for its second year the AdventurfulTM, new last year and in short supply, yes your local Girl Scout has these for you.
