Girl Scouts Hold Drive-Through Cookie Booth Aug. 1

  • Wednesday, July 15, 2020

Girl Scouts of the Southern Appalachians will be holding another drive-through cookie booth on Saturday, Aug. 1, at their Chattanooga Girl Scout Service Center, 6101 Enterprise Park Dr., from 9 a.m.-1 p.m. 

Since the disruption of cookie booths back in March due to COVID-19, GSCSA has had to get creative with cookie sales. They sold nearly 27,000 boxes of cookies through the national and local Digital Cookie store and 7,630 boxes during the June 6 day of drive-through cookie booths. However, GSCSA still has around 55,000 boxes on hand. 

The drive-through will be stocked with the Girl Scout cookies you know best, Trefoils, Samoas, Tagalongs and, everybody's favorite, Thin Mints, along with many others. The cookies can be stored in the freezer and enjoyed year-round. 

“This is a big change in plans for us and an opportunity for the community to purchase cookies at a convenient drive-up booth,” Fugate said. Many community members and businesses have purchased cookies to donate to first responders and healthcare workers. “It’s a guilt-free purchase. You’re helping a Girl Scout and you’re helping the people who’ve been helping us this whole pandemic."

In the interest of girl safety, this “booth” will only be worked by adult volunteers. The sale will be outdoors, physical distancing guidelines will be followed, and masks will be worn by those working the booth.
