Subject: [GS] Booth Sales at the Boston Flower Show This came to me from the council. -----Original Message----- From: Cookie Booth Sale Sent: Tuesday, February 13, 2007 2:47 PM To: Kace Wilson Subject: Flower Show cookie sale update Hi Kace, Would you please send out this update about Flower Show cookie sales to the SU Cookie Chairs, so they can circulate it among the troops in their SU? Thanks, Debbie FLOWER SHOW COOKIE SALE INFO The Flower Show runs at the Bayside Expo Center Saturday, March 17 through Sunday, March 25. We will schedule one troop per day. All major movement of cookies must be done before the show hours begin each day. (You are allowed to bring a small supplemental quantity of cookies during the day if you run short of a few flavors.) Plan to bring 600 boxes for weekend days and 400 boxes for weekdays. You may schedule staffing shifts throughout the day; it is no problem for people to move in and out all day long. You must have at least one girl and one adult at the booth at all times during the entire show day, up to a maximum of 12 people (total girls and adults) per shift. When 2 or more girls are present, please plan to have at least 2 adults. The weekdays must be covered also; these are good times for girls who attend private schools or are homeschooled. Saturday March 17, move in cookies 7:00 am, start selling 8:00 am, till closing 9:00 pm, move cookies out after 9. Sunday March 18, move in cookies 8:00 am, start selling 9:00 am, till closing 6:00 pm, move cookies out after 6. Monday March 19, move in cookies 8:00 am, start selling 9:00 am, till closing 9:00 pm, move cookies out after 9 through Saturday March 24, same hours as March 19 Sunday March 25, move in cookies 8:00 am, start selling 9:00 am, till closing 6:00 pm, move cookies out after 6. You will notice that most of these dates are AFTER the regular closing of the cupboards. Arrangements will be made for you to obtain the cookies you need, and return the unsold boxes, for the Flower Show. You may arrange a regular or commercial sale. Cookie managers will have a few days until Wednesday, March 28 to distribute regular boxes to girls in QuickBase. If you are interested in a day at the Flower Show, send a request by Monday, February 26 to cookieboothsale@ptgirlscouts.org. Be sure to list all the dates you can make it (those who can staff weekdays with girls are especially needed) in order of preference. Days will be allocated by lottery. We expect to get many more requests than can be accommodated, so thanks in advance for your patience, and good luck. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Ralph L.
