From Peanut Butter Patties to Caramel deLites, it’s time again to buy and enjoy Girl Scout Cookies.
And Inland Empire Girl Scouts are ready.
They picked up boxes to sell during Mega Drop events across the region on Saturday, Jan. 24.
Hundreds of volunteers gathered at four sites — in Riverside, Lake Elsinore, Apple Valley and Palm Desert — to sort and distribute more than a million boxes of cookies, a news release states.
The Girl Scouts of San Gorgonio Council hosts the event each year to launch the cookie sales season.
Across the Inland Empire, 326 troops signed up to sell nearly 900,000 packets of cookies — nearly 73,000 cases, according to the council.
The sales helps girls learn entrepreneurial skills, how to manage money and business ethics, the release states.
