San Antonio, TX

Girl Scouts of Southwest Texas (GSSWT), headquartered in San Antonio, will open a temporary site in Uvalde to aid in the distribution of Girl Scout cookies throughout the council’s western counties.   The Uvalde Girl Scout Cookie Warehouse, located at Reno’s Rental at 974 E. Main Street will be open to Girl Scouting’s adult volunteers as they replenish their cookie inventories for troops in Uvalde, Real, Edwards, Val Verde, Kinney, Maverick, Dimmit and Zavala counties. After being picked up from the cookie warehouse in Uvalde, Girl Scouts will sell cookies to customers in Uvalde and surrounding communities.   The temporary location will be managed by GSSWT staff and will be open Wed., Feb. 6 through March 1. Hours of operation are Wednesday – Friday from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. and 4-6 p.m. and Saturday from 8 a.m. to noon. The site is closed Sunday through Tuesday.   The Girl Scout Cookie Program not only helps girls fulfill their goals, but also helps communities grow. All proceeds from selling Girl Scout cookies stay within the region to provide direct services to girls and adult volunteers and girls get to decide where the money goes. Your purchase of Girl Scout cookies helps girls do great things, such as pay for a fresh change of clothes for an abused victim or cheer up a soldier far from home. Offering eight varieties, each box of Girl Scout cookies is priced at $3.50.
