—A new look is on the menu for Lemon Chalet Cremes, sporting a round shape and a chalet-inspired design.
Be on the lookout for Girl Scout troops selling cookies at businesses and neighborhoods in your community, and help support girls in your area. The cookie program is designed to help girls become business savvy and learn economic literacy skills, while participating in a fun activity. The girls take active roles in all parts of the program, and proceeds from cookie sales benefit girls in your community. The cookie program continues through Jan. 20 for pre-orders, and booth sales begin Feb.13 and continue through March 8.
