girl scouts of the colonial coast
Girl Scouts and Dairy Queen. Turns out, two classics are better together. Girl Scouts of the Colonial Coast (GSCCC) is partnering with select Mid Atlantic Dairy Queen locations in the Hampton Roads area to host Meet & Treat events on July 31 from 10 to 11:30 a.m. and you're invited! Girls and their parents/caregivers who are interested in connecting with Girl Scouts are welcome to come to participating locations to do an activity, earn a DQ patch and have a sweet treat! If you're already a Girl Scout, bring a friend!
“We are excited to be able to do something locally based on the national Girl Scout partnership with Dairy Queen,” GSCCC CEO Tracy Keller said. “This will be an opportunity for us to showcase our favorite Girl Scout Cookie, the Thin Mint, and to reach out to new girl members who can benefit from being part of the nation’s largest leadership program for girls.”
This summer, Dairy Queens throughout the country are helping celebrate the skills that girls learn in Girl Scouts through the Girl Scout Cookie Program with the sale of the Girl Scout Thin Mints Blizzard. It was introduced in July 2008 and brought back for August 2009, both times as the Blizzard of the Month.
