Girl Scout cookies teach business skills

When members of Brownie Troop 4106 sold Girl Scout cookies as kindergartners, they were “super nervous,” selling mainly to friends and family, co-leader Renee Dee said.

Last year, the troop began participating in booth sales at places such as grocery stores. In their third year of selling Girl Scout cookies, Dee said, the second-graders are over their fear and are focused on selling even more of the treats.

“You really see the girls taking ownership of it,” Dee said.
