Exciting Announcement for the 2026 Girl Scout Cookie Season!
The much-anticipated 2026 Girl Scout Cookie season is set to kick off from January 18 to March 1, 2026. With over 12,000 enthusiastic Girl Scouts in grades K-12 ready to take the reins, this year’s cookie campaign promises to engage communities across central and northern Arizona, including the Navajo Nation and Hopi Lands.
Girl Scouts–Arizona Cactus-Pine Council (GSACPC) emphasizes that this program is more than just a fundraising initiative; it serves as the world's largest girl-led entrepreneurial program, with 100% of net proceeds invested back into local community projects aimed at empowering girls. Christina Spicer, co-CEO of GSACPC, states, "When the community engages with local girls during Girl Scout Cookie season, they are giving them the opportunity to lead, learn, and serve."
A New Cookie with Sweet Opportunities
This year, GSACPC is thrilled to introduce the new Exploremores™ cookie, which features flavors inspired by rocky road ice cream. The lineup will also include beloved favorites like Thin Mints®, Samoas®, and more—available for just $6, with specialty cookies like Toffee-tastic® priced at $7. "The Girl Scout Cookie Program brings people together across neighborhoods and generations. It supports girls, believing in their future and creating opportunities for them," adds Mary Mitchell, co-CEO of GSACPC.
Benefits of the Cookie Program Extend Beyond Sales
Proceeds from cookie sales directly enhance various Girl Scout programs across the region. They're used for immersive STEM workshops, outdoor exploration, leadership activities, and travel. Moreover, by selling cookies, the girls are learning essential entrepreneurship skills, such as decision-making and money management, along with contributions to community service initiatives ranging from animal shelter donations to environmental sustainability projects.
Get Involved: Community Engagement and Fun Events
The excitement doesn't end with cookie sales. Throughout the cookie season, special events like “Girl Scout Nights” at local basketball games will allow community members to support Girl Scouts while enjoying sports. The season kicks off with festivities featuring the Grand Canyon University women’s basketball team on January 24, 2026, where attendees can purchase cookies and cheer on local girl leaders.
Get Ready for Cookie Season!
To purchase cookies, community members can connect with a local Girl Scout or use the Cookie Finder on the GSACPC website to locate cookie booths at popular local stores. Online ordering via Digital Cookie will also allow for easy access.
As the 2026 Girl Scout Cookie season approaches, it presents a fantastic opportunity to directly support young girls in your community—empowering them through entrepreneurship and service. Join the fun, and make a difference!
