It’s the most wonderful time of the year — and no, we’re not talking about jingle bells or twinkling lights. We’re talking about that magical season when doorbells ring, order forms appear, and self-control quietly leaves the building. Yes, Girl Scout Cookie season has officially arrived.

Something Old, Something New, And Still Loved

Let’s start with the big news: Exploremores are new to the scene and already making waves. These chocolate cookies are topped with marshmallow and almond crème, which sounds less like a cookie and more like something you’d find on a fancy dessert menu. They’re perfect for people who like their cookies with a little flair, and maybe a nap afterward.

Of course, the classics are back, and they didn’t come to mess around. Thin Mints remain the undisputed champions of the freezer shelf, while Samoas (also known as Caramel deLites) continue their reign of caramel, coconut, and chocolate perfection. Tagalongs and Do-si-dos are here for the peanut butter loyalists, proving once again that peanut butter and cookies are a power couple.

Feeling adventurous? Adventurefuls bring brownie-inspired cookies with caramel crème to the table, while Lemon-Ups and Lemonades add a bright, citrusy option for those who like a little zing with their sugar rush. Trefoils keep things simple and buttery, and Toffee-tastic offers a gluten-free option that still delivers big flavor.

In-Person Shopping Welcomed

And here’s even sweeter news for Williston: pop-up cookie booths will be set up around town at Albertson’s, Cash Wise, Love’s Travel Center, M&H Convenience Store, Runnings, TA Express, Tractor Supply, Wise Penny, Walmart, and Walt’s Market. So you can stop by, stock up, and support your local Scouts. No pre-ordering required.

If you don’t spot a uniformed Scout knocking on your door, you can still shop and order online, and even donate if your sweet tooth is on a break. Either way, you’re supporting a great cause.

So mark your calendar, Williston. Starting this Friday, it’s time to stock those cupboards, hide a few boxes for “later,” and remember: cookie season only comes once a year.
