Girl Scouts Hold 2nd Annual Cookie Classic Run



More than 300 runners and walkers took part in the 2nd annual Girl Scout Cookie Classic Run in January. Participants ranged in age from 2, riding in a stroller along the course, to 63. Proceeds from the Cookie Classic help provide programs for Girl Scouts, learning opportunities and training for Girl Scout volunteers, and financial assistance for girls who would otherwise not be able to participate in Girl Scouts.
