Girl Scouts Heart of the South launches cookie season in region; nine varieties and $6-per-box price noted
Summary
Representatives from Girl Scouts Heart of the South described cookie season on Six in the City: nine varieties including a new "Explore Moores" flavor, $6 per box, online ordering at girlscoutcookies.com, council coverage of 59 counties and a membership of about 6,000.
Guests Brit Davis and Allison Coons, introduced on air as representatives of Girl Scouts Heart of the South, joined the show to outline the council's cookie program and broader youth programming.
On cookie season, the guests described nine varieties this year and identified a new flavor called "Explore Moores," described as a Rocky Road— with marshmallow, chocolate and almond cream. They said boxes are priced at $6 and that customers can find booths locally or order at girlscoutcookies.com by entering a ZIP code for online shipping and troop credit.
The guests described the council's geography as covering 59 counties across West Tennessee, northern Mississippi and one county in Arkansas, and estimated membership near 6,000 youth. They emphasized that cookie proceeds largely remain local to support troop travel, service projects and leadership programming, and described Girl Scout awards (Bronze, Silver, Gold) and scholarship opportunities for older girls who complete higher-level service projects.
The hosts and guests encouraged families interested in joining to contact local leaders and noted that Girl Scout Week was approaching in mid-March. The segment included practical purchasing instructions and community-program context rather than new policy or budget actions.
