Some things I’ve picked up about selling over the years: Lead with a smile. People don’t need your entire spiel about troop sales and cookie flavors, just a friendly greeting and

Clemmer delivering Girl Scout Cookies in 2023. After 12 years of participating in the Fall Product and Girl Scout Cookie Programs I can confidently say there are two keys to being successful: Set a high goal and ask everyone! When I say everyone, I mean EVERYONE. My mom jokes that during the cookie program she has dreams of me saying “Hi! Would you like to buy Girl Scout Cookies?” because whenever I am at a booth I ask everyone who walks past me. Yes, I get a lot of people w

After searching through the Anytime Activities, on Saturday, my Ambassador troop and I drove two hours south to the small town of Penrose, Colo. to take part in the Space Science Badge with the Estes Rockets Cosmic club. My troop had a great time learning about other planets, real time NOAA satellite data, and women working at NASA. They also learned about the history of Estes Rockets, and got to launch model rockets at the end. It was great for them to learn about space, the
