Site Sales

Site Sales are upon us, which means standing in front of stores asking people to buy cookies. Sounds boring, right?

WRONG!

Site Sales can be a lot of fun! Not only do you get to hang out with your friends, but you get to sell TONS of cookies and come up with creative ways to approach customers!

Here are some tips to make this year's Site Sales fly!
Hold a box of cookies while you talk to customers, if they can see how good they look... they won't be able to resist.
Only ask them on the way out: not only do they have some change now, but they still have their wallets handy. :)
Make up a song or poem to invite customers to buy your cookies.
Come up with your own! If you have a really great idea, leave a comment and let us know! :)

Happy cookie selling!

Thinking Day 2010

World Thinking Day is February 22nd this year, so mark your calendars!


World thinking day was started in 1926 as a day when Girl Scouts and Girl Guides all around the world think of each other and give thanks and appreciation to their “sister” Girl Guides and Girl Scouts.


The World Thinking Day theme for 2010 is girls worldwide say "together we can end extreme poverty and hunger" and the aim is to raise awareness among everyone about the situation and improve the lives of the poorest people in the world.


All of the money raised this year will be going towards getting rid of poverty and hunger in Haiti, Zimbabwe, Sudan, Georgia, and Maldives.


If your Service Unit is having an event, see if you are collecting any money for the World Thinking Day fund, and ask your friends and family to donate.

If you're not having an event, talk to your Service Unit and see if it's possible to have one!
