Local Girl Scout Troop dedicates portion of cookie profits to children

Written by Guest Bloggers (aka troop leaders): Jane Baer and Shelley Gowen

Junior Girl Scout Troop, #42467, out of Snohomish, dedicated a percentage of their Cookie Sale profits to doing something for children. One idea was to take a field trip to Build-a-Bear to buy 18 bears. The girls sold over 1,000 boxes of cookies. The girls were given a choice of what bear to make.

Each bear has a satin heart inside specially chosen and filled with love by each girl. Our troop hopes the bears bring happiness to the children that receive them.

Many thanks to Stacey Pfeiffer and Marie Preftes-Arenz for talking to our troop about Deconess Children and for picking up the bears.

Sincerely,

Junior Girl Scout Troop #42467
