2006 Cookie Sale Activity

This year the theme for the Cookie Sale will be Explore! The Wonderful World of Girl Scout Cookies. You will see the Explore! theme throughout the membership year as we take girls and volunteers on a safari. In Swahili, safari means journey. Our journey is just beginning and it knows no boundaries. Grab your map and compass and Explore! The Wonderful World of Girl Scouting and the Girl Scout Cookie Sale.

Look for two new cookies this year. The first is a tasty cinnamon and oatmeal treat called a Cartwheel. The cookies are rich in calcium and loaded with important vitamins, and best of all – they taste great! The second is Thanks-A-Lot, the cookie that says it all! This is a shortbread cookie dipped in rich fudge and topped with an embossed Thank You message in one of five languages. Both cookies contain 0 trans fat perserving. That makes five of the eight cookies trans fat free.
