2023 Mystery House Contest
CLICK HERE for the Final Mystery House Clues #3
For Girls: 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:
The Mystery House Contest Begins Tuesday, February 28
Starting February 28 you can find the first clues here. 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!
- There are several Mystery House locations throughout
Orange County. - Each Girl Scout to leave a door hanger or visit a
Mystery House in person 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. - The Mystery House 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. - Girls who visit houses will not know it is a Mystery House. This will keep the Mystery going for the next Girl Scout who visits!
New clues will be revealed every few day and will be announced on our GSOC Facebook and Instagram pages.
