On Saturday, May 18, GSCCC celebrated our Cookie
Entrepreneur Officers who sold 1,000 boxes or more of Girl Scout Cookies this
year. More than 100 girls gathered at Camp Skimino in Williamsburg to be
rewarded for their success. The camp, a year-round, 98-acre location recently
won the title of Best Summer Camp as part of Coastal Virginia Magazine’s Best
of Readers’ Choice Award contest, making it the perfect place to celebrate this
year’s top sellers! Want to attend this camp? Click here to
register for summer camp by May 31.
At the outdoor event, the girls enjoyed high-adventure camp
activities like canoeing, rock wall climbing, archery and more. Girl Scouts of
the Colonial Coast CEO Tracy Keller congratulated the girls on a job well done
before the girls shared their goals for the upcoming season, some go-getters even
aiming to sell 5,000 boxes!
