NEW ORLEANS (WGNO) — Starting the first weekend of March, Girl Scouts Louisiana East troops will set up booths selling cookies at select locations around the state.
The cookie booths will follow as the second step of the start of the annual Girl Scout Cookie season. The first step began Friday (Jan. 20th) with pre-orders and now, the troops will take to selling cookies in person for National Girl Scout Cookie Weekend beginning Friday, March 3.
Booths will be available the first three weekends in March starting Friday (March 3) and ending Sunday (March 19).
“We have had a great start to the 2023 Cookie season. Our Girl Scouts have been hard at work since January 20, and they are excited to begin the direct sales portion of the program which will continue to empower them with the business skills needed to succeed in the world as they continue to grow and learn,” stated Rebecca Pennington, CEO of Girl Scouts Louisiana East.
Those who purchased cookies during the pre-order window in January and early February can expect a delivery the weekend of February 25 and 26.
