In a warehouse temporarily housing nearly 2,400 cases, a dozen Girl Scout troops picked up their cookies Monday in the annual fundraiser that raises money for the scouts

Dozens of Girl Scouts gathered at the University of Mary to take part in “Cookie University.” About 60 girls from kindergarten through 12th grade participated in the event, which serves as a kickoff to the 2024 Girl Scout Cookie Program.

Everybody wins when you order a box of Girl Scout Cookies: you cater to your craving; girls gain courage, confidence, and character; and communities experience positive change.
