Booth Sales: Where to Find Your Favorites

Starting February 10, you can find local Girl Scouts selling cookies at booths stationed outside various retail locations, including Youree Drive in Shreveport and Airline Drive in Bossier City. These booths are perfect for grabbing a box (or several) of your beloved cookies while supporting the troops! Remember that every box sold goes towards helping our Girl Scouts learn life skills and funding their girl-led programs. What could be better than snacking on something delicious and supporting an amazing cause at the same time?

Say Goodbye to Two Fan Favorites

Unfortunately, there’s some bittersweet news for cookie fans. The beloved S’mores and Toast-Yay! cookies will be saying their goodbyes after this year. The S’mores cookie has been a crowd-pleaser since its introduction in 2017, providing a delightful combination of flavors that scream campfire fun. Meanwhile, the Toast-Yay! cookie, which joined the lineup in 2021, has also captured the hearts of many. Make sure to grab them while you can—this will be your last chance!

Introducing Raspberry Rally!

But don’t worry, there’s a shiny new cookie on the block! Say hello to the Raspberry Rally cookie! This exciting new addition features a crispy chocolate wafer cookie with a luscious raspberry center.

The online sales for the Raspberry Rally cookie will kick off on February 21, with orders beginning on February 27. So be on the lookout and ready to order!

Prices for the Season

Pricing for Girl Scout Cookies this year will range from $4 to $7 per box. Depending on the location and the types of cookies you choose, prices may vary. Make sure to budget so you can stock up on all your favorites!

The Importance of the Cookie Program

The Girl Scout Cookie Program has been around for over a century, emphasizing critical skills such as goal setting, decision making, money management, people skills, and business ethics. This program teaches young girls how to become leaders while building confidence and character. The skills they gain will support them not just in cookie season, but in life as they emerge into empowered young women ready to tackle the world.
