Girl Scouts of Southeastern New England is celebrating Girl Scout cookies with their annual fundraising event, Cookies & Cocktails on March 9.

 Once again, the festivities are shaping up to be an incredible evening celebrating 106 years of Girl Scouts selling cookies. Local chefs will be creating desserts using everyone's favorite treat—Girl Scout Cookies. Event partners include Hemenway’s, Boat House, Res American Bistro, Ellie’s, Safehouse, Barnaby’s Public House, and Crepe Corner to showcase our cookies "out of the box".

 Proceeds from Cookies & Cocktails will directly support programming focusing on mental health and well-being, camperships for youth in foster care, and making Girl Scouting accessible to all who want to participate.

“We want to ensure that everyone who wants to be a Girl Scout can be a Girl Scout. In today’s environment with increased inflation, we understand the impact this has on many families’ ability to take on additional expenses such as their children’s activities,” reads a statement from the organization.

 Tickets are $75 per person. The evening will be emceed by Mario Hilario WJAR. Chef Frank Terranova will once again provide  a live recipe demonstration with Mario Hilario.
