Kristi Osterlund of the Girl Scouts of Montana and Wyoming provided this additional information:

Delivery of pre-ordered Girl Scout Cookies, which would typically happen about this time, will happen later than usual. Suspending the Cookie Program also means Girl Scout Cookie booths, previously scheduled to begin on March 27, will be postponed. Unfortunately, the date for the resumption of the Cookie Program is not yet known.

There is a way to still support Girl Scouts and receive (additional) cookies. GSMW has extended the sale via girls’ digital “store.” By paying shipping and handling, folks can order Girl Scout Cookies and receive them in 3-5 days directly from the baker. This option is not available for previous orders.
