Re: ATTACK OF THE FUND-RAISING GIRL SCOUTS!!!

[Guest guest]

I am soooo proud of me!! (I am the cookie MOM. The whole troops cookies are here at my house!)

That is good. My DD normally sells around three hundred boxes and last year I only had two boxes myself. This year she is in SPURS so I had hoped to skip the cookies but I think my DW really enjoys the process and after all it does support all the things they do since DW likes going to play with the horses also. They have been busy with cheerleading but that, I hope ends soon, though they took a first at America's Best nationals this weekend and had the experiance of performing at the Cowboy-Redskins game after winning the Dallas Cowboy Cheerleaders Competition Grand Chapionship.

Those were really great ideas! How about donating some to a food pantry?

Give those who use the service a little treat! A lot of Scouts sell

cookies to help them go to camp (at least that was the way it was for

me) maybe someone could just donate something they would need for camping??

Good thinking, !

(who remembers, somewhat fondly, the days of going door to door with an

order form, and then having to go back to deliver the cookies!!)

You know, I just had a thought! (oh, really??!)

Anyway, I just figured that I've probably had my lifetime limit of girl

scout cookies! Like a bank account, I've made all my withdrawals and

there's no $$ left!!

Kathy,

Where do you live? Here in Murray, KY we get .40 per box.

and the local troop gets a quarter.

The amount made from these sales certainly seems to fluctuate from

council to council! Our Cookie Mom told us that our troop would get

*almost* a dollar per box.
