TO RUN
Do you love Girl Scout Cookies and running? Well when the two combine you get the sweetest 5K in North Florida!
For everyone's safety, this year's 5K will be held virtually, so you can Thin Mint Sprint anytime and any place you want on the day of the race to celebrate the end of another amazing cookie season! Ahead of March 6, you'll get a package with your medal, T-shirt and box of Girl Scout Cookies, so you'll be ready to run.
All proceeds from the event ensure that every Girl Scout has access to the Girl Scout Leadership Experience through interactive and enriching programs that focus on life skills, outdoors, entrepreneurship, and STEM.

Support Girl Scouts
Whether you're a runner or not, you can still support Girl Scouts of Gateway Council by making an investment in girls.
Every girl deserves access to the resources, role models and experiences necessary to fulfill her potential.
But we need your help to ensure every girl in Northeast Florida develops the courage, confidence and character that Girl Scouts nurtures. Your investment in today's girls is a commitment to tomorrow's leaders.
