Girl Scout Cookie customers can purchase Thin Mints®, Samoas® and other favorites in person today through this weekend in Bend. Though pandemic conditions have prevented in-person booths for much of the season, recent improvements and county re-openings mean booths—while still rare—are possible in some areas.

The Bend booth will feature all eight varieties of Girl Scout Cookies while supplies last, including Thin Mints®, Samoas®, Tagalongs®, Do-Si-Dos®, Trefoils®, Girl Scout S’mores®, Lemon-Ups® and gluten-free Toffee-tastic®. Payment by credit or debit card will be accepted. These are the specifics:

What: Walk-Up Girl Scout Cookie Booth
Where: Girl Scouts of Oregon and SW Washington’s Bend Service Center, 3188 N Hwy 97 #109
When: Friday, March 19 9 a.m. – 7 p.m.
Saturday, March 20 9 a.m. – 7 p.m.
Sunday, March 21 9 a.m. – 3 p.m.

Online ordering through the Girl Scout Cookie Finder will continue to be available through March 28, offering a contact-free method for customers to support local Girl Scout troops. Despite challenges this year, thousands of local girls are building skills, learning and having fun through participation in the Girl Scout Cookie Program. 100% of the proceeds from the Girl Scout Cookie Program stay local, powering essential leadership development and meaningful community impact.
