Many customers want to purchase cookies to support your troop however they want the cookies donated to agencies, such as a local food bank. If you have cookies to donate to the military, there will a special drop off at Hanscom Airforce Base on March 8, 2008. Please read this flyer for details!
Recognitions - Early May 2008
Your troop's recognitions and cookie credits (PDF) will be available to you the first week of May. Contact your Cookie Chair to arrange a time to get them. If your troop families plan to use their cookie credits to pay for summer camp, they may note that on the camp application and mail the cookie credits in when they arrive.
The recognitions that you will receive, including the amount of each girl's cookie credit, can be viewed or printed from the recognition window in your troop view of Quickbase. If your troop meets all the requirements for the $7 for 7 troop bonus (PDF), you will receive it with your other recognitions.
