The cookies are here!

The Girl Scout Cookies have arrived!

This past weekend, troops from all around Western Ohio picked up cases and cases of cookies, and the girls are ready to start delivering your cookies.

Don't think that because the cookies have arrived that the 2011 Girl Scout Cookie Sale is over - it's still going strong! Girl Scouts in Western Ohio are still taking orders, cookie cupboards will be open soon, and this weekend marks the start of booth sales.

So, if you still need to get some Girl Scout Cookies - or if you need MORE cookies (because you can never have too many boxes of Thin Mints), be sure to check out the cookie booth locator to find a sale near you. Click here for the locator.

And if you want to go really 'hi-tech' with Girl Scout Cookies, be sure to download the free Cookie Locator Mobile App for your iPhone, iPod Touch, iPad, or Android device. This mobile app - available in the iTunes Store and Android Marketplace - uses your phone's GPS location to find cookies nearby (or you can use your ZIP code to find booths). The app also lets users discover their "cookie personality" and share fun facts with friends via e-mail, Twitter and Facebook.

Booth sales for Girl Scouts of Western Ohio run from March 4 - April 3.

And don't forget - if you want to buy cookies for our troops, you can always donate to the Gift of Caring. The Girl Scouts of Western Ohio's Gift of Caring sponsorship program is a great way for you to send a taste of home to US military personnel serving overseas. The cookies you purchase are sent directly to our military personnel and 100 percent of the proceeds from Gift of Caring stay in our communities. (Gift of Caring ends March 21).

Enjoy those Thin Mints and Samoas!
