National Girl Scout Cookie Day Participation Patch
Girl Scouts of the USA designated Friday, Feb. 8 as the first ever National Girl Scout Cookie Day, and that's perfect timing for Girl Scouts of Northern California for our 2013 Cookie Program!
Girl Scouts NorCal has created a special National Girl Scout Cookie Day Participation Patch with easy to complete activities for girls that focus on the 5 Key Skills for Girls from our Cookie Program: Goal Setting, Decision Making, Money Management, People Skills, and Business Ethics. Girls just have to complete one activity from each of the 5 categories and then this patch will be available in our GSNorCal Retail Stores. Bonus: these patch activities also meet requirements for the Cookie Activity Pin!
