Girl Scouts of Northern Illinois' Thin Mint Sprint

Join us for the 20th Annual Thin Mint Sprint!! 

We are thrilled to announce that the Fox River Grove Memorial Library Running Club is organizing an in-person race again this year! The event includes a timed 5K fun run/walk along the beautiful Fox River, and it will take place on Saturday, September 14, at Lions Park. After the race, we will have a post-race party that you won't want to miss. Join us for a day of fun, fitness, and community spirit!

Funds raised through our program support GSNI's financial assistance programs. These programs ensure that every girl has the opportunity to be a Girl Scout, regardless of socio-economic barriers. From membership dues to uniforms, books, and even international travel, we do everything we can to provide the Girl Scout experience to all. Last year, with the help of our participants and donors, we were able to raise approximately $19,000 in net proceeds to continue our mission of building girls of courage, confidence, and character who make the world a better place. Are you ready to help us smash that goal again this year!? READY. SET. GO! 👟
