Girl Scouts Cookies on sale now

Girl Scouts will be knocking on your door through October 26 as they begin their cookie sale.

If you'd like to order cookies and no one has knocked on your door, please call Nancy Pollock at 589.3321.

Girls in all Wayne County towns and villages are selling cookies this week.

It's been 90 years since Girl Scouts began selling home-baked cookies to raise money. The idea was so popular that in 1936, Girl Scouts of the USA enlisted bakers to handle the growing demand. Since then, selling Girl Scout Cookies has become a successful way to help girls develop important leadership skills and earn money for group activities.

Girls learn the importance of personal responsibility, the value of goal setting, the spirit of teamwork, and the thrill of accomplishment.
