This Saturday more than 2 million boxes of Girl Scout cookies will be arriving in Connecticut. Girl Scouts throughout the state will pick up their orders and prepare them for delivery to you.

Volunteers and Girl Scouts will be on hand at several locations across the state to help off-load the thousands of cases of cookies from the semi-trucks and pallets and into the waiting cars of Girl Scout leaders for local distribution.

A representative from the military will be present at one of the locations in support of Girl Scouts of Connecticut's "Cookies for Heros" service project. "Cookies for Heros" allows customers to purchase Girl Scout Cookies to be shipped to service men and women at home and overseas. This year 100,000 boxes of Girl Scout Cookies to our service men and women.
