Calling All Leaders!!!
We need your cookie manager’s name and email address A.S.A.P.
If you are NOT selling cookies, we need to know so we can take your troop off the list.
Trainings will take place in December and if there is not a trained manager for your troop, your troop will not be able to sell cookies. This is Council’s rule, not ours.
Please email either Lori or Maryanne with the information today!
In additions, Cookie Managers will need to RSVP for the training now, so please pass the dates/times on to them so they can contact us.
