Galloway Girl Scout One Of 2022's Top Cookie Sellers

GALLOWAY, NJ — A Galloway resident was one of the region's top Girl Scout Cookie sellers for 2022.

Savannah Spinelli, 16, was one of the top 10 sellers this year, making her an "Elite Cookie Entrepreneur," the Girl Scouts of Central and Southern New Jersey (GSCSNJ) announced.

The 10 girls sold nearly 33,000 packages of cookies together this year, GSCSNJ said. Spinelli herself sold 2,637 packages.

“The GSCSNJ Council is proud of the accomplishments achieved by our Top 10 Elite Cookie Entrepreneurs and all of our Girl Scouts who participated in this year’s cookie program,” said Ginny Hill, GSCSNJ CEO. “Our cookie program has proven to make a difference in the lives of girls by teaching them essential skills such as goal setting, financial literacy, money management, and innovation which are important ingredients for success. Congratulations to our girls on a job well done!”

Another Atlantic County resident was in the top 10 as well. Emma Tomlin, of Linwood, was not only a 2022 top seller, she was also a top seller last year. The 15-year-old sold 3,904 packages this year.

Last year, the Juliette's Pearls Club was formed to honor Elite Entrepreneurs, the top cookie sellers each year. The club is named after Juliette Gordon Low, founder of Girl Scouts, who sold a beloved string of pearls to fund the operating expenses of the first Girl Scout Council. Elite Entrepreneurs receive a necklace with a single pearl on it and will receive an extra pearl each year they remain a top seller.
