Satisfy the Cravings - It's Girl Scout Cookie TimeTAMPA - Girl Scouts of West Central Florida (GSWCF) is pleased to announce Friday, Jan. 8, marks the official start of the 2010 Girl Scout Cookie Program throughout its eight-county jurisdiction of Citrus, Hernando, Hillsborough, Marion, Pasco, Pinellas, Polk and Sumter counties. Whichever your favorite Girl Scout Cookie - Thin Mints, Tagalongs, or Samoas - the wait is finally over! Through late-March, thousands of Girl Scouts will take orders for your favorite Girl Scout Cookie varieties, including Thin Mints, Do-Si-Dos, Dulce de Leche, Lemon Chalet Cremes, SamoasŪ, TagalongsŪ, Trefoils, and the new Thank You Berry Munch with cranberries and white fudge chips. Through Friday, Jan. 29, Girl Scouts of West Central Florida will take pre-orders; those cookies will be delivered beginning Feb. 21. Friday, Feb. 26, marks the start of booth sales, so keep an eye out at your favorite businesses and stores and take a box - or 12! - home with you. Also beginning Feb. 26, visit www.gswcf.org and search for a Girl Scout Cookie Booth by zip code using the cookie booth locater system. It's now easier than ever to satisfy your Girl Scout Cookie cravings! Booth sales end Sunday, March 21. For those who want to support Girl Scouting in their communities but don't want to enjoy the cookies themselves, GSWCF offers the Cookies from Home Program. This unique program is a way for Girl Scouts to give back to their communities: donations of cookies through the Cookies from Home Program will be sent directly to our military troops serving in combat zones overseas through a partnership with Support Our Troops. Donations to the Cookies from Home Program may be made in person through a Girl Scout, or online at www.gswcf.org at anytime during the Cookie Program, through March 21.
