Cookie season was cut short by COVID-19 this year, but Oklahomans can still support programming for girls thanks to a special partnership between Girl Scouts Western Oklahoma and Boot Barn.
The Do-Si-Do Drive-Thru will offer Girl Scout Cookie sales from 11 a.m. to 8 p.m. July 17-18 at four Oklahoma Boot Barn locations.
Boot Barn pickup locations will be at 812 S. Meridian Ave. and 2358 W. Memorial Rd. in Oklahoma City, 600 Ed Noble Pkwy. in Norman and 4009 NW Cache Rd. in Lawton.
Girl Scouts will not participate in handing out cookie orders to limit the potential for virus exposure, and adult volunteers at the drive-thru event will wear masks.
To minimize public contact, shoppers can pre-print their own cookie order forms at www.gswestok.org and place the form on their car’s dashboard to make their purchase. Cookies start at $5 per box.
