Happy Volunteer Appreciation Month!

Thank you to the amazing volunteers who make the Girl Scout Entrepreneurship program possible.

Through your dedication and guidance, you help Girl Scouts develop the five skills that will shape their futures—goal setting, money management, decision making, business ethics, and people skills. Whether it’s teaching them how to set achievable goals, manage their troop funds, or navigate their Cookie business with integrity, your impact is important!

You empower Girl Scouts to think creatively, act responsibly, and become confident leaders who are ready to make the world a better place. Your time, energy, and support are helping to build a brighter future for Girl Scouts! Thank you!

Great Job Cookie Entrepreneurs!

We are inspired by you and all that you have done during the 2025 Cookie Program to build on your skills, help out your fellow Girl Scouts, give back to your community and fund your goals! Our Council applauds all the Girl Scouts, families and volunteers who helped.

And don’t forget, the Stellar Skills Contest is still open! If you know a Girl Scout who’s really shown off the 5 cookie business skills, nominate them today! We’d love to hear what made them shine. To nominate a Girl Scout with Stellar Skills, click the button below!

Troop Consignment is here!

Hey Troop Cookie Coordinators! Good news, Girl Scouts of Orange County is allowing troops to pick up more Girl Scout Cookies on consignment!  

What does this mean?
Troops can place orders of more cookies with the cupboard to sell, and return unsold cookies picked up on consignment to the cupboard. This is a great opportunity to have all the variety that you need, with no risk for the troop

Things to note:

  • Some cookie varieties may be out of stock.  Cupboards will do their best to fulfill consignment orders with the inventory they have available. 
  • Please be aware that any consignment orders or returns need to all be done within the same cupboard for that troop. 
  • Troops that received the Fall Program Consignment Bonus and already have consignment orders must continue with their current process – meaning they cannot combine or place a new consignment order at a different cupboard.

How does this work?
Check out the Consignment Process, Troops will need to follow these guidelines to place a planned consignment order with a cupboard of their choice. A consignment receipt must be printed and brought to the cupboard of your choice. Click here for the receipt. Please be aware that any consignment orders or returns need to all be done within the same cupboard for that troop. 

After following the instructions in the Consignment process, review the step by step instructions on how to place your Troop’s Planned Consignment Order by clicking here.

By following the simple steps outlined in the Consignment Process and staying mindful of the guidelines, troops can maximize their efforts and work toward their goals. If you haven’t already, be sure to place your consignment orders and take full advantage of this opportunity!

For any questions or more information, don’t hesitate to reach out to your Service Unit Cookie Manager or Cupboard.

Good luck Girl Scouts!

Troop Golden Ticket Reward!

Your troop has the chance to find a Golden Ticket for an exciting Troop reward. Keep reading to learn how!

We’ve placed “Golden Tickets” in several cookie cases that can be found by placing a Planned Order at any of the Cookie Cupboards.  If you find one of these Golden Tickets in a case of Cookies your troop will win a Troop reward! 

Your troop could win a reward such as Troop Cookie Dough, a private Troop experience with the GSOC Art Manager, a Troop Movie Night, Campfire and S’mores experience or access to the Shops brand new heat press!

This promotion will end March 16, 2025 when the Cookie Program has concluded.

Mystery House is coming!

There is at least ONE secret Mystery House in nearly every Service Unit. Each Girl Scout to stop by a Mystery House location and/or leave a cookie door hanger will receive a certificate and a special patch!

Here’s how it works:

  • First, make sure to follow us on Facebook and Instagram @girlscoutsoc for clues
  • There are several Mystery House locations throughout Orange County.
  • Each Girl Scout to leave a door hanger or visit a Mystery House in person location will receive a certificate and patch!
  • Girls should leave a door hanger with the girl’s first name, Troop # and contact information for an adult leader or parent/guardian.
  • Hosts will provide GSOC with the information for each Girl Scout who has left a door hanger or visited in person. GSOC will mail the patch & certificate directly to each Girl Scout.
  • Girls should not ask customers if they are a Mystery House. Girls must follow all Girl Scout safety rules and should not enter homes.

Come back tomorrow to see Clue #1!!

Simply post the flyer at your booth sale and keep track of donations with the donation tracker by filling in 1 segment for each dollar collected.

Don’t forget to let your Troop Cookie Coordinator know how many packages you have sold so they can allocate the virtual cookie share in ABC Smart Cookies.
