2025-2026 Cookie Program Caregiver Permission and Responsibility Form

Cookie Program's Caregiver Permission and Responsibility Form
Welcome to the 2025 -2026 GSHNC Product Programs!

The Girl Scout Cookie Program is beneficial for Girl Scouts, their troops, and to Girl Scouts, Hornets’ Nest Council. The programs provide funds to support activities such as Girl Scout troop events, trips, camping, and service projects. For our council, these programs provide funds to recruit and train adult volunteers, organize Girl Scout groups, and provide council-wide programming in the following five focus areas: STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, & Math), Environmental Leadership & Outdoor Adventure, Healthy Living, Arts & Culture, and Financial Literacy & Entrepreneurship. Through the Girl Scout Cookie Program, Girl Scouts develop essential skills: goal setting, decision making, money management, people skills and business ethics.

This form should be completed for your Girl Scout to participate in the 2025-2026 GSHNC Cookie Programs.
