A Message from the CEO
As we wrap up the past several months, I just want to take a minute to reflect on all the great things that have been happening.
We finished a very successful cookie season and have been celebrating many of our highest sellers at various events and dinners over the last month. We are also excited to recognize our G.E.O. girls and top sellers at Wet ‘n Wild Emerald Pointe this upcoming Saturday. Thank you for all you did to be a part of our cookie program this year- we couldn’t do it without you!
In April, we hosted a wonderful weekend in Fletcher, NC as part of Annual Meeting, where we had the honor of celebrating so many of our dedicated volunteers and the accomplishments of the council over the past 12 months. Two weekends ago, we recognized our highest award Girl Scouts- 124 Bronze Award Girl Scouts, 105 Silver Award Girl Scouts and 47 Gold Award Girl Scouts council-wide- and the amazing work they’ve done through their projects, truly making our communities a better place.
We’ve launched key partnerships with organizations like #HatNoteHate and Blue Cross Blue Shield of North Carolina- giving our girls access to resources to help them be their best selves. And we brought Girl Scouts collectors and enthusiasts together from all over at our NC Girl Scout Collectors Show in May. (Click here to see photos of all that has been going on!)
It is such a privilege to be a part of all these amazing experiences! And I want you to know that I appreciate everyone who makes up our GSCP2P family- we are making great strides together and our future is bright!
Enjoy your summer!
Jennifer Wilcox, CEO

Time to Redeem Your GSCP2P Scholarship Money
It’s the time of year when all our scholarship winners should start the process to request their GSCP2P scholarships. So that we can be prepared to process your scholarship and pay your institution after you complete high school, we will need graduating seniors who have earned or won a scholarship to complete this form by July 15.
Raspberry Rally Not Returning for 2024 Season
Last year, Raspberry Rally cookies were introduced as part of a pilot online-only sales strategy. This was a fun and new way to teach girls omnichannel business skills and expand the cookie portfolio by introducing an exciting new flavor profile to the Girl Scout Cookie Program.
While Raspberry Rally was extremely popular last year, GSUSA is taking a pause this season to prioritize supplying the classic varieties, learn from last year and refine this new strategy. Therefore, Raspberry Rally will not be available for order online or in-person during the 2024 cookie season.
join us this summer at the ballpark
Don’t forget about all fun at the baseball stadiums this summer! You can find all the upcoming Girl Scout Nights here. And check out our blog for the Baseball Connection packet. It is a great resource to turn your night at the ballpark into a learning and fun Girl Scout experience!
