Girl Scout Cookies On Order For Area Sale
Some 13 544 boxes of Girl Scout cookies have been ordered and seven veteran girl scouters assigned to their distribution as plans for this year's area sale are completed. The sale begins March 6 according to Mrs. Jess Border, Northern Light District sale chairman. Cadette junior and senior girl scouts hope area residents will buy this mountain of cookies during the two week sale period. Brownies will not be selling cookies. The girls will sell four varieties of cookies made by the Barry Biscuit Co a division of Mother's Oats Co Chicago Ill. No advance order will be taken but scouters point out there is ample time to decide whether to purchase chocolate scotteas peanut butter chocolate mints or savannahs vanilla.
