Council: Girl
Scouts of the Desert Southwest
Troop
68100’s Cookie Winter Wonderland Booth came equipped with gum drops, lollipops,
snowmen, and of course, Girl Scout Cookies!! This bling’d-out booth was the

Winner #2,
with 40,136 votes: Troop 1019
Council: Girl
Scouts of West Central Florida
In celebration
of the Samoa’s 40th birthday, this troop went all out for the caramel and
coconut treat Americans crave. Their Cookie Cabana featured a surfboard that
tracks their progress in meeting their sales goals, plus all the beach
accessories you need for a day on the water. The girls also decided to expand
on their Philanthropy badge by hand delivering cases of cookies to local
military families, children who are ill, and the local police department that
recently lost an officer in the line of duty.
Winner #3,
with 40,079 votes: Troop 3149

With the
theme "It's COOKIE Time!” Troop 3149 used their bling’d-out booth, which

their earnings, they plan to purchase tickets to a Shawn Mendes concert this summer.
How exciting is that?

Welcome to Cookie Land! What better way to celebrate the Super Bowl than
