2025 Troop Cookie Manager Playbook

Greetings Extraordinary Troop Cookie Managers,

Thank you for being a volunteer and supporter for our Girl Scouts and the Girl Scout Cookie Program. Your guidance and assistance will help your troop navigate the program, and you will help to produce our future leaders and entrepreneurs.

Your hard work and dedication will bring about a strong impact on your Girl Scouts’ confidence, goals and skills. We know you and every Girl Scout in Eastern Missouri are ready to Embrace Possibility for the 2025 Cookie Season. Mark your calendar for GO Day-Saturday, January 11, 2025. There are several dates key to the program for you, your Girl Scouts, and their families: • eBudde TM and Digital Cookie® links will be sent to Troop Cookie Managers and Troop Leaders on Saturday, January 4 . Please be on the lookout for the links because these systems are required to be used during the Cookie Program. • Complete all required training in gsLearn beginning Tuesday, December 10 . • Troop Cookie Booths officially start on Friday, February 21 , and end on Sunday, March 16 . Booths are a great way to earn a lot of troop proceeds in a short amount of time, so secure or report your locations in eBudde at least 48 hours prior to the scheduled booth. Updated guidelines and resources will be shared with you via regular Cookie News eBudde emails, at girlscoutsem.org/volunteercookieresources and in the online Troop Cookie Manager Playbook throughout the season.

The Product Program Team is ready to help you and your Girl Scouts’ goals for the 2025 Cookie Season!
