"Running plays an important role in my professional life as training for a race requires strategy, discipline, and accountability—so does leading an organization.” - Bonnie Barczykowski, CEO of Girl Scouts of the USA https://bit.ly/4cAI6wa Last year we got over 500 people outside and moving at our first Run for the Cookies 5k, and we’re thrilled to be bringing it back on November 16 at Riverside Park in Roswell, GA. 🎽 Want to race?

We are the largest organization dedicated solely to girls—all girls—where, in a diverse, inclusive, accepting and nurturing environment, girls build skills for success in the real world. In partnership with committed adult volunteers, girls develop qualities that will serve them all their lives, like leadership, strong values, social conscience, and conviction about their own potential and self-worth. Girl Scouts embraces girls of all abilities, backgrounds, and heritage, with a specific and positive philosophy of inclusion. Each girl—without regard to socioeconomic status, race, physical or cognitive ability, ethnicity, primary language, or religion—is an equal and valued member of Girl Scouts. Founded in 1912 by Juliette Gordon Low, Girl Scouts' membership has grown from 18 members in Savannah, Georgia, to 3.4 million members throughout the United States, including U.S. territories, and in more than 90 countries through USA Girl Scouts Overseas.
