Cookie Sale Program — Guidelines for Cookie Dough
Issued for the 2008 Cookie Prorgam
Cookie Dough is an earned
award for each Girl Scout who participates in the cookie program,
and sells a minimum of 50 boxes. Cookie Dough earned per box sold
is as follows: 50-89 boxes - $.10 90-129 boxes - $.15 130-169 boxes
- $.20 170 boxes and up - $.25 Cookie Dough expires December 23,
2008 at 5 pm. Lost Cookie Dough WILL NOT be re-issued.Cookie Dough
(CD) will be distributed through the troop leader in late April.
If a troop’s cookie bill is not paid in full CD, for every
girl in that troop will be withheld until the troop has paid it’s
cookie bill in full. If an Alert Form A has been submitted for a
specific Girl Scout’s balance, only her CD will be withheld,
and the rest of the troop’s will be mailed. If a Girl Scout
is receiving a Campership, her CD will remain at the Service Center,
and be applied directly to her camp bill. Please make sure parents
are aware of this, so they are not looking for their Girl Scout’s
CD in the mail. Siblings who are registered Girl Scouts may combine
CD to earn the higher amount after each girl has sold minimum of
50 boxes. Download the “Combine Sisters’ Cookie Dough"
form here.
