FORT WAYNE – Girl Scouts of Northern Indiana-Michiana will launch the 2026 Girl Scout Cookie season Jan. 30.
A new Girl Scout cookie for the 2026 season is the Exploremores™, a classic sandwich cookie inspired by rocky road ice cream, with flavors of chocolate, marshmallow and toasted almond-flavored creme. The rest of the cookie lineup includes returning favorites including Thin Mints®, Caramel deLites®, Peanut Butter Patties® and more, according to a provided news release.
When girls participate in the Girl Scout Cookie Program, the largest girl entrepreneurial program in the world, they acquire skills, including goal setting, money management, decision making, people skills and business ethics, stated the release. Girl Scouts obtain transferable life skills as they earn a variety of badges and awards, including cookie business badges, financial literacy badges, cookie entrepreneur family pins and entrepreneur badges.
All proceeds from cookie sales stay local to fuel inspiring experiences throughout the year, including camp, field trips, service projects and more. Beginning Jan. 30, support your local Girl Scouts by ordering from a girl you know or visiting www.girlscoutcookies.org to find a booth near you or have them shipped to your home.
