Cookie Dough Cards The Cookie Dough Card is designed to be earned and used by the individual girl. It is separate from troop proceeds, which are earned by the troop to support activities and projects. Cookie Dough Cards are not to be accepted for troop dues or to become part of the troop treasury. NOTE:
The parents must sign to acknowledge receipt of their daughters’ Cookie Dough Card and rewards. Please remind them of the Cookie Dough Card expiration date.
Troops that fail to return undelivered Cookie Dough Cards, rewards, and/or their signed Troop Rewards Report to their District/Region Product Sales Manager, will be unable to participate in any future money earning activities.
