Bling Your Booth: Bling Your Booth is our annual troop cookie booth décor contest, where troops can win Cookie Dough and other prizes. Watch our Facebook page for more details.

Badges are displayed on the front of the uniform and signal completion of an established set of learned skills. Details on badges can be found in Girl Guides and the Volunteer Tool Kit.

This is where you pick up reorders (Planned Orders) of cookies during the duration of the program, but after your initial order delivery.

Each level of Girl Scouts offers a specific set of age-specific guidelines. These guidelines can be found on our website; gsksmo.org > Cookies+ > For Girls and Caregivers > Cookie Entrepreneur Family Pin.

We never send the same Cookiegram twice so be sure to read all of them! Cookie Patches: Cookie fun patches are displayed on the back of the uniform. Some are earned by reaching package sales goals as part of the girl recognitions; others may be purchased from GSKSMO’s on-line shop.
