This afternoon/Tonight, 4 girls and a few parents braved the freezing temperatures and even more frigid wind chill to sell Girl Scout Cookies. The folks at our local grocery store have always been absolutely amazing, and today was another example of their greatness.
The parents and girls were bundled up in many layers to be prepared for the weather, but when they arrived, the store manager allowed them to move inside the entry between the two sets of doors where the carts are stored. It was still cold b/c the doors wouldn't stay closed, but it was so much warmer than being in the whipping, freezing wind.
I arrived with about 30 minutes to go, and when I saw the manager, I thanked him. He said, "No thanks necessary. You would be popsicles by now."
All the employees are just so kind, and we greatly appreciate them! In the end, watching folks run in and out braving the cold to get their dinners and other groceries, the girls sold 53 boxes.
