GINGER "SNAP" HOLLOWAY

Golden Trefoil Top Seller — 7 Years Running
"Be prepared. Be polite. Be the one still standing when the lights go out."

Hi there! I'm Ginger — but most folks who've opened a door to me call me Snap. I earned that one selling cookies on Cedar Street since I was nine years old. Three thousand nine hundred twenty-seven boxes last season alone, if you're counting. I always count.

I'm a junior assistant troop leader with Millbrook Timberwolves Troop 13, year-round camp counselor, and — if the badge sash doesn't give it away — a very firm believer in the scout motto. I tie knots the way some people tie shoes. I can patch a wound in under ninety seconds. I know which berries will fill your belly and which ones will stop your heart, and I can tell them apart in the dark. Gran June taught me that. She also taught me that courtesy is a weapon, which is the single best piece of advice I've ever received.

I'll be honest with you — I've seen some things that weren't in the handbook. Knocked on the wrong door at the wrong time once, and the wrong door turned out to have a family inside it who needed someone to hold the line with a sash cord and a couple of tent stakes. I held it. Got a week of headlines and then the whole town forgot, which is fine. I didn't forget. I just earned another badge and kept walking my route.

What I'm offering is simple: good cookies, solid first aid, someone who reads a room fast and never leaves the wounded behind. I'm small, I'm cheerful, and I sleep with a knife in my boot. If you're in trouble, I'll patch you up before I ask what happened. If you're the trouble — well, I'll still offer you a mint first. Everybody deserves a fair pitch.

So! Door's open. Campfire's lit. Pull up a log and tell me what you need. Be prepared. 🙂

Rule Number One
A scout is loyal. A scout is helpful. A scout always closes the sale.

"Domo took this one on a trail hike — he held the camera at a weird angle but my arm looks great, so it stays. Twelve push-ups that morning, thank you very much."

"Troop 13 cabin, Lake Weronce. Every patch on that shirt means something — even the ones I gave myself. Especially those."
Be prepared. The jar on my windowsill has one cookie owed — and I don't stop walking routes until debts are paid.
