Girl Scouts of the Chesapeake Bay in the Cape Region took delivery of 21,000 boxes of Girl Scout Cookies Feb. 4 at Rogers Signs in Milton. This year local Girl Scouts will offer eight varieties: Thin Mints, Samoas, Tagalongs, Trefoils, Do-si-dos, Savannah Smiles, gluten free Toffee-tastic, and new this year S’mores. Cookie booth sales will begin Friday, Feb. 10, at local businesses throughout the Delmarva Peninsula.

Girls are also taking donations of Girl Scout cookies for Operation Taste of Home and local community groups.  The Operation Taste of Home cookies will be donated to the Armed Forces and local agencies, such as food banks and pantries, blood banks, cancer centers and youth programs. Girl Scout Cookies are $4 per box with the exception of Toffee-tastics and S’mores at $5 per box.   Individuals interested in purchasing cookies and to donate cookies to Operation Taste of Home can call the Cookie Hotline at 1-800-YUM-YUM2.
