Girl Scout Cookies

GIRL SCOUT COOKIES 

On November 11, 1932, 
Girl Scouts baked & sold 
cookies for the first 
time in the windows of 
the Philadelphia Gas & 
Electric Co. here. This 
endeavor soon became a
Philadelphia tradition. 
In 1936 the Girls Scouts 
of the U.S.A. adopted 
the annual cookie sale 
as a national program.
