1. <strong>Cookie</strong> Cupboards are located throughout<br />

GSCWM council jurisdiction.<br />

2. Most cupboards are managed by volunteers.<br />

Please remember to thank cupboard volunteers!<br />

It's a big job!<br />

3. GSCWM Service Centers are cookie cupboards.<br />

4. Check the council website for an updated list <strong>of</strong><br />

cupboards, cupboard hours <strong>and</strong> contact<br />

information for cupboards.<br />

inventory, the council cupboards need to be<br />

managed. As the sale draws to an end fewer<br />

cookies will be stocked in the cupboards.<br />

eBudde will calculate troop proceeds based on the total number <strong>of</strong> boxes sold by the troop.<br />

<strong>Troop</strong> <strong>Cookie</strong> Managers are responsible for the safekeeping <strong>of</strong> cookie sale money <strong>and</strong> the payment <strong>of</strong> the troop’s<br />

cookie bill.<br />

Prior to cookie delivery, conduct a short training session with the troop to emphasize the following:<br />

• Deliver cookies with a parent or buddy.<br />

• Deliver only a few orders at a time.<br />

• Use the money envelope. Keep it in a safe place at home.<br />

• Turn in money to the <strong>Troop</strong> <strong>Cookie</strong> Manager frequently. Have parents turn the money in, confirm the<br />

amount <strong>and</strong> provide a receipt with both the TCM’s <strong>and</strong> parent’s signature.<br />

As <strong>Troop</strong> <strong>Cookie</strong> Manager, people know you have money. Protect yourself.<br />

• Keep cash in a safe place. Do NOT store cookie money in your home or vehicle.
