SAN ANGELO, TX -- The Girl Scouts of Troop 5126 started their annual girl scout cookie drive on Wednesday.
The troop led by Stephanie Fisher will be raising money for a trip to the Texas State Aquarium in Corpus Christi and a trip to the beach this summer. While selling these boxes troops have the ability to earn up to 80 cents per box. They will also use some of the money earned towards the Cadette Silver Award. These awards are the highest award a girl scout cadette can receive.
The girls selling the cookies will be from the ages of 5-18. Kindergarten through 1st grade are called Daisies, 2nd through 3rd grade are called brownies, 4th trough 5th grade are called juniors, 6th through 7th grade are called cadette, 9th through 10th grade are called seniors, and 11th through 12th graders are called ambassadors.
