Girl Scouts begin 2020 cookie season

This cookie season, Girl Scouts USA announces two sweet new ways to celebrate young female leaders: refreshed packaging reflecting the experiences cookie earnings make possible for girls and a new lemon cookie.

The new cookie, Lemon-Ups, is baked with messages inspired by Girl Scout entrepreneurs. “I am a go-getter” and “I am an innovator” are among the eight phrases that bring the experience of Girl Scouting to life. The new cookie joins the national 2020 lineup, which also includes favorites such as Thin Mints, Samoas and Trefoils.

GSUSA’s refreshed cookie packaging continues to emphasize what the cookie program is all about, and the updated images feature current Girl Scouts taking part in a range of experiences available to members, from adventure-packed camping and canoeing, to exploring space science and designing robots, to taking action to improve their communities. Each purchase of Girl Scout Cookies makes experiences like these possible for girls in the community.

Girl Scout Cookies can only be purchased from a registered Girl Scout. To find Girl Scouts selling cookies near you, visit www.girlscoutcookies.org.
