Girl Scouts - NC Coastal Pines

It's All About the Girls!


The Girl Scouts have been selling cookies since the early 1900's, but the Cookie Sale Program is about a lot more than selling cookies!  Girls learn many important life skills while participating in the sale, and have the opportunity to earn some pretty cool rewards as well.

Life Skills.  Girls learn valuable life skills in the Cookie Sale Program -- meeting and exceeding goals, budgeting and money management, teamwork, time management, networking, how to provide excellent customer service, and handling rejection and success to name a few.  Many successful businesswomen will tell you they learned key business skills selling Girl Scout cookies in their youth.

Standing Out.  Girls often benefit by listing their cookie sale experience on job and school applications.  Who wouldn't want to know how a girl sold so many boxes of cookies during her Girl Scout experience?  If nothing else, her application will stand out and get her noticed!

Families Working Together.  Participating in the sale also brings families together.  Successful cookie sellers often involve parents, aunts, uncles, grandparents, and siblings in the sorting and delivery process.  They work together as a team to help the girl realize her cookie sale goals.

Recognitions, Patches and More!  Girls that participate in the cookie sale also earn recognitions, patches, and other great rewards like Superstar Destinations and Cookie Dough.  Click the links in this paragraph to find out more.
