2012 Cookie Recognitions
While we think the entire recognition structure for this year’s sale is pretty awesome, we’re especially excited to announce these additions to the lineup!
- Turn & Burn Trip to Mount Rushmore! Meet in Denver at midnight, hop on a bus to South Dakota, enjoy an action packed day at local landmarks , participate in the closing flag ceremony at Mount Rushmore, hop back on the bus and come back to Denver. Phew! That’s one fun-filled 24 hours!
- Toshiba Thrive Tablet, stand and wireless keyboard…a modern take to the laptop.
- xBox Kinect – Controller-free gaming and voice commands. You gotta check this out!
What else is new and exciting in 2012? Cookie Credits!
- Cookie Credits earned in the 2012 cookie sale won’t expire until Dec. 15, 2013! That gives girls an extra year to use their credits.
- Also new for 2012, girls may choose to have their credits held at the GSCO service center to be applied towards summer camp. Girls should mark on their Girl Recognition Selection form whether or not they would like their credits and turn in to your TCM or IGSCM.
- Cookie Credits will be mailed directly to the girl, rather than to the Service Unit.

Top Seller Events
Girls who sell 750+ packages may choose to attend any one of the top seller events, regardless of location. This year, we’ve planned a day at the Cheyenne Mountain Zoo in Colorado Springs, dinner at the DTC Marriott, a visit to the Glenwood Caverns Adventure Park in Glenwood Springs, and a camp sampler day at Meadow Mountain Ranch and Lazy Acres. Check out the blog on Top Seller Events for dates and details!
Bar Patch
Patches are awarded at the hundred level from 100-1000. Girls will receive the highest level which they achieved. The highest bar patch award is 1000+.
Earned by using web or cell phone based technology to send 15 requests to friends and family asking them to purchase cookies.
Goal Achiever Patch
Earned by selling 12 or more packages of Hometown Heroes Cookies.
Troop Super Seller Recognition
Troops with a selling girl average of 350+ packages will be awarded $20 cash per registered girl to be used to fund a troop activity.




how does one get access to the cookie club to sell online? I asked her troop leader but she didn’t know.
The troop leader or Troop Cookie Manager needs to first log in to Cookie Club using her eBudde username and password. She then sets up her troop settings in Cookie Club and then can export the girl names from eBudde directly to Cookie Club. The leader can give the girl an ID and password to begin using the online tools of Cookie Club. You can learn more about Cookie Club here: https://cookieclub.littlebrownie.com/parents/parents_index.html
How can someone choose a top seller event if not all the times and dates are set yet?
Talk with your regional director of product sales. Thanks.
Is the Troop Super Seller Recognition and average of 350 boxes/girl, or is it at least 350 boxes/girl?
sorry, meant ‘an average’ not ‘and average’
It’s based on a per selling girl average; so total troop sales divided by the number of selling girls in that troop.
When will the girls receive their patches and recognition choices? Not the cookie credits, but the items they picked from the list. My troop leader doesn’t return any calls or emails, so for all I know she has had them for weeks… It has been a bad experience.
Hi Tara,
The patches and recognition items should be arriving from the bakery soon, but have not arrived yet. These items are shipped directly to the service unit cookie manager, who distributes to the troop cookie manager to hand out to the girls.
I’m sorry you had a negative cookie experience. Please call me to discuss in further detail. 303-607-4840
