Cookie Cutter Club event 2007: Girls Just Want to Have FUN!
The Tarheel Triad Council welcomed new and returning members to the Cookie Cutter Club on June 2, 2007 at the Girls Just Want to Have FUN! CCC event. Of our 125 CCC members, 69 members were in attendance accompanied by their guests. Members and guests enjoyed cupcakes, fun foam tiara crafts, nail art, photo frames and were recognized for their amazing achievements of selling 500 or more boxes in the Join the Fun 2006-2007 Cookie Program.

The CCC members were introduced to our new ABC Girl Scout Cookie in 2008…the Cinna-Spins (a 5pkg – 100 Calorie Pack cookie) as well as learned about the 2007-2008 Cookie Program theme…Ready. Set. GO! The CCC members were also given new materials for the Ready. Set. GO! Program.

For more information about the Cookie Theme and 8 varieties please visit our Cookie Company’s website directly at www.ABCsmartcookies.com ABC’s website has great ideas for teens selling, themed clip art, tips for selling, games, crafts, certificates, goal setting ideas, troop training tips and much more! These websites are full of great ideas and tips and we encourage girls, families, friends and Troops to visit them this year.

The Cookie Cutter Club members also chose the 2007-2008 Ready. Set. GO! recognitions by placing votes on the items they felt girls of the Tarheel Triad Council would like to earn in our cookie program. You can see these exciting recognitions in the 2007-2008 Cookie Materials and our website coming soon!
