Girl Scouts of Historic Georgia Celebrates National Girl Scout Cookie Weekend
SAVANNAH, GA (February 19, 2026)— Girl Scouts of Historic Georgia invites cookie lovers across Georgia to celebrate National Girl Scout Cookie Weekend, taking place February 20-22.
National Girl Scout Cookie Weekend is an annual event where Girl Scouts nationwide promote their sales and flex their entrepreneurial spirit through the iconic Girl Scout Cookie Program®. Every purchase makes a difference in the lives of young entrepreneurs as they find their way in the world and discover all they are capable of. Joining the iconic cookie lineup this year, Exploremores™, a rocky road ice cream-inspired sandwich cookie, is another delectable treat that consumers can purchase to support Girl Scouts this season.
As always, 100% of the proceeds earned through the Girl Scout Cookie Program stay local with councils and troops as they explore more possibilities through life-changing experiences and programming offered year-round. Cookie lovers can purchase their favorite cookies in person from Girl Scouts at any local booth or can order cookies for direct shipment to their front door, or pickup, using the Girl Scout Cookie Finder. They can also donate cookies to service men and women, first responders, and more.
Each box purchased helps fund life-changing experiences for Girl Scouts, from summer camp adventures and educational field trips to STEM activities and impactful community service projects. When customers support Girl Scouts during National Girl Scout Cookie Weekend by purchasing their favorite cookies, they’re not just enjoying a delicious dessert—they’re opening doors for girls to discover their leadership potential, build lasting friendships, and create positive change in their communities.
“This weekend is about more than cookies—it’s about investing in girls and their futures,” said Krystal Crawford, CEO of Girl Scouts of Historic Georgia. “When our community supports Girl Scouts, they’re helping girls grow into confident leaders who are ready to make a difference.”
Girl Scouts would like to recognize Adobe, this year’s national sponsor of the cookie program. Through the support of Adobe, Girl Scouts’ entrepreneurial journeys are being fueled by creativity. Girl Scouts nationally have access to an educational video on the Digital Cookie® platform to learn about responsible digital design and communication skills that can support their cookie businesses. The video is powered by education offered through the Adobe Digital Academy, Adobe’s global program focused on equipping learners with the latest creative, marketing, and digital skills to stand out and stay ahead.
Girl Scouts would also like to acknowledge this year’s national boothing partners—Walmart, Sam’s Club, Wendy’s®, and Goodwill®—for their support. Participating Wendy’s restaurants began hosting local troops as of February 6, providing Girl Scouts with the opportunity to showcase their entrepreneurial skills.
