For Girl Scouts of the USA, Girl Scouts Brownies are in grades 2 and 3. A girl may join a Girl Scout Brownie troop at any time.
As for the time, this depends on the troop. Information about the time for troop meetings and other events should be provided by the troop leader.
Girl Guide and Girl Scout Brownies in other countries vary on the age girls may join, but generally the age levels are from ages 6 to 9.
Christa McAuliffe started as a Girl Scout Brownie. At the time, Girl Scout Brownies started at age 7, so Christa would have started in 1955.

It depends on the Girl Scout council. They are making changes in the council product sales. So, yes, you might have to pay for your Girl Scout cookies at the time you place your order or you might wait until they are delivered. Some councils are now having the girls have the cookies with them so you pay and receive your cookies all at the same time - rather than placing orders. Cookie booths are also more available, and again, you pay for and received your cookies all at the same time.
Girl Scout cookies cost one US Dollar in the years from about 1968 until about 1975. Girl Scout councils determine the price for cookies in their own council, so not all areas may have been asking $1.00 for Girl Scout cookies during that time.
The category of the Girl Scouts for younger girls now known as Brownies was originally called Rosebuds. The chocolate confection that became popular in North America at the beginning of the 20th Century appears to have been called "brownies" from the time they were first created.
The Girl Scout Cereals that will be coming out are Caramel Crunch and Thin Mints.
Juliette Gordon Low was President of the Girl Scouts of the USA until 1920. At that time she was granted the title of Founder and concentrated more on the international Girl Guide and Girl Scout organization.
There are no Girl Scouts in Vietnam at this time!
The Girl Scout cookie sale is a learning experience for the girls. As they sell the cookies, girls develop five essential skills: goal setting, decision making, money management, people skills, and business ethics. The sale is limited so that the girls will also spend time on other activities, not just on cookie sales. Also, by only selling at a certain time of the year, interest in the cookie sale can be created each year. People ask Girl Scouts about when will they be around again to sell cookies.
Girl Scout Cookie Sales dates and procedures are different for each Girl Scout council. In addition, the Girl Scout Neighborhood or Service Unit can set due dates as can the troop/group leaders or cookie chair. For the most accurate information, contact your troop/group leader or cookie chair. You can also check your Girl Scout Council's web site.
