Meet Our Council Staff: Product Program Team
Over the next several weeks, we are introducing the GSCP2P staff to you, so that you are able to put names with faces. You can also always find our full staff directory on our website.
Product Program Team
The Product Program Team is the team behind the two biggest programs of the year in Girl Scouts- the Fall Product Program and the Girl Scout Cookie Program. From training volunteers and organizing girl rewards to coordinating thousands of cookies flowing smoothly through our cookie cupboards and into the hands of volunteers and troops, this is only a very small part of what this team does to keep our council moving forward. Meet the team here!

World Thinking Day 2024
Every year, fellow Girl Scouts and Girl Guides from over 150 countries around the world celebrate World Thinking Day. The Girl Scout holiday, on February 22, always focuses around a theme that brings Girl Scouts across communities together to address issues and challenge their thinking. This year’s focus is “Our World, Our Thriving Future: The Environment and Global Poverty.”
To help girls and troops explore this theme and celebrate World Thinking Day, there is an activity guide for Girl Scout Daisies, Brownies and Juniors, as well a a guide for Girl Scout Cadettes, Seniors and Ambassadors. Girls who complete Thinking Day activities can also purchase the special 2024 patch.
We would love to see how our troops and service units elevate World Thinking Day with their girls! Share your activities and completed projects with us on social media by tagging us in your posts.
