HURON — Girl Scouts-Dakota Horizons will join the nation’s other Girl Scout councils to participate in National Girl Scout Cookie Weekend on Friday and Saturday.
In Huron, Girl Scouts will be selling cookies at Fair City Foods, 102 Dakota Ave. N., on Friday from 4 to 8 p.m. and on Saturday from 10 a.m. to noon.
Girl Scouts in De Smet will sell cookies on Wednesday, Feb. 28, at Maynard’s Food Center.

For over 100 years, Girl Scouts has been operating its cookie program, which runs through March 12 this year; what better time to get your cookies than this celebratory weekend?
The Girl Scout Cookie Program is an opportunity for each G.I.R.L. (Go-getter, Innovator, Risk-taker, Leader)™ to show her entrepreneurial spirit as she runs her own business, uses Digital Cookie to manage her online customers, sets goals and blasts through them, all the while continuing along her transformation of becoming one of tomorrow’s leaders.
Did you know that 100 percent of the net revenue from cookies sales stays in the Girl Scouts’ council area? This program helps Girl Scouts-Dakota Horizons reinvest in helping unleash the inner G.I.R.L. in all current and potential Girl Scouts.
Girl Scouts spend National Girl Scout Cookie Weekend selling at cookie booths, door-to-door or even through Digital Cookie, where cookies like the best-selling Thin Mints® can cure their customer’s cravings.
“We are excited to see how our young entrepreneurs can grow on National Girl Scout Cookie Weekend,” said Marla Meyer, Girl Scouts-Dakota Horizons CEO. “They learn goal setting, decision making, money management, people skills and business ethics as part of the Cookie Sale Program, all important aspects to becoming tomorrow’s leaders. The most important part is that they’ll carry the skills they learn through the overall program and this weekend with them for a lifetime, and still have fun doing it.”
