For Girls and Families

How to Participate

What is great about the Girl Scout Cookie Program is that as a family you can customize your experience by participating with a troop in all the ways below or picking what is right for your Girl Scout.

Order Card

Using the order card is a great tool to help Girl Scouts reach their goals. Use it to take initial orders from customers and re-orders from those who need just one more box of their favorite treat. In-person ordering not an option? The order card can be used for orders taken over the phone, or through email or text.

Initial Order Taking: Jan. 1 - Late Jan. (deadline set by troop)

Goal Getter Order Taking: Jan. 25 – Mar. (deadline set by troop)

Digital Cookie: Jan. 1 – Mar. 12

Digital Cookie is a fun, educational tool that helps girls run and manage their Girl Scout Cookie business online. Girl Scouts offer their customers the convenience of ordering and paying online while learning digital marketing skills. Girls who pair Digital Cookie with the order card sell on average 76% more cookie boxes. This is an easy way to stay contactless and participate in the program.

Cookie Booths: Feb. 8 - April 30

Cookie Booths are a troop activity that allows Girl Scouts to sell directly to the public with cookies in hand at a local business. In this new environment, cookie booths may look a little different than in years past. Check with your Girl Scout’s troop to see what type of booth (virtual, drive-thru or in-person) they decide on and how you can provide support.

Smiles4Military

With the Smiles4Military initiative, customers can donate Girl Scout Cookies to those serving in the military at home and abroad. Donations are made in $4.00 increments with a Girl Scout on her order card, online with Digital Cookie, or at a cookie booth. Girls who participate sell on average 250+ cookie boxes.
