[quote=Anonymous]Yes and no on the "troops need the money" point. That's only at the ends of the spectrum -- the troops with very low-income parents need the money for basics like uniforms and basic supplies. The troops with high-middle-class parents need the money for high-end stuff, like going to Jamboree at Hershey Park. We have a middle class troop that doesn't do a lot of expensive outings, so we don't really need the money as troop. Our girls can sell as many or as few cookies as they want -- I don't want any parent to feel they need to be out hitting the pavement to earn money for the troop. That said, a large portion of the cookie sales goes not to the troop, but to the Council and national organization, which does use it to support programs for less fortunate Girl Scouts. [/quote]
