Girl Scouts of Southeastern New England Celebrates Cookie Season with Seventh Annual Cookies & Cocktails Event!

Posted

Warwick, RI (February 9, 2023) — On March 9, 2023, Girl Scouts of Southeastern New England is celebrating Girl Scout cookies with our delicious annual fundraising event, Cookies & Cocktails!

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 scrumptious desserts using everyone's favorite treat—Girl Scout Cookies! We have partnered with some of your favorite restaurants: 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 our high-level 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.

Attendees will enjoy savory hors-d'oeuvres, tasty Girl Scout Cookie creations, the opportunity to bid on silent and live auction items, and live music. Tickets to this event are $75 per person. The evening will be emceed by the one and only Mario Hilario WJAR—a treat in itself! Chef Frank Terranova will once again be joining us for a live recipe demonstration with Mario Hilario. (Please note this is a 21+ event.)

The event is scheduled for Thursday, March 9th from 5:30pm to 8:30pm at the Crowne Plaza (Plaza Ballroom) located at 801 Greenwich Ave, Warwick, RI.
Free ample parking is available for your convenience. Purchase tickets and learn more about the event at www.gssne.org/cookiesandcocktails
