Important Forms & Documents

2020 Cookie Season Patch Programs

Cookie Dad

Dads are an important part of the Girl Scouts of Kentucky’s Wilderness Road Cookie Team. That’s why we honor dads who help Girl Scouts all across Kentucky meet their goals. Tell us what makes your dad an awesome Cookie Dad and be eligible for an exclusive Cookie Dad patch.

Contest Rules

If your Cookie Dad is the best, write a short essay (250-500 words) about what he does that is so awesome and submit it to gskentucky@gmail.com. Be sure to include your Cookie Dad’s name, your name, troop number and a photo of your Cookie Dad, preferably involved in a Girl Scout Cookies-related activity. However, any photo will be accepted. You may also submit a link to a YouTube video. All submissions must be received by March 1, 2020.

All participants will receive a Cookie Dad patch. The top stories will be shared on the Girl Scouts of Kentucky’s Wilderness Road Blog and Facebook page @KYGirlScouts.

Wacky Weather Warrior

We know that sometimes the weather is wacky! We may experience snow, rain, wind and sunshine ALL on the same day. Those are the days when it’s harder to get out and work your cookie booths. Girl Scouts of Kentucky’s Wilderness is challenging you to tackle those wacky weather days and be a Wacky Weather Warrior!

How does this work?

When GSWRC declares a “Wacky Weather Warrior Weekend” you will see a GSWRC Facebook post go up.

Post your wacky weather booth photos from that weekend in a comment directly on the post, please include your troop number.

Troops with the most creative weather proof booths will receive a Wacky Weather Warrior patch. *One winning troop per Wacky Weather Warrior Weekend post will be selected.

Be sure to follow us on the Girl Scouts of Kentucky’s Wilderness Facebook page @KYGirlScouts for program updates.

Troop Proceeds & Recognitions

Troop proceeds are based on the per girl average (PGA) of your troop. Take the total number of packages sold by your troop, divided by the number of girls registered and plug that into the chart below to figure how much your troop will earn per package sold. Don’t worry, Smart Cookies (online cookie system) will figure your PGA’s at the end of the sale.

PGA	Rate Per Package
1-174 packages	$.57
175-299 packages	$.60
300+	$.65

Junior, Cadette, Senior and Ambassador Troops (with majority vote) will still have the option to "opt out of girl rewards" and earn up to an additional $.10 per package.

Check out the 2020 Recognitions!

Online Sale Management

Everything from sending out E-Cards to customers, to organizing and managing your sale as a troop cookie manager, to clip art and guides to help parents and troop leaders through every aspect of the cookies sale.
