I could be totally wrong and off base here, I admit that.  Please don't attack me for being concerned.

  Please don't blow up at me guys...This was brought to my attention, as there are new regulations in place for places like Farmers Markets where these goodies are sold.  I know this because I sell items at the Greeley Farmers Market.  AND, Girl Scout cookies are not made in a kitchen.  They are made by a company that cooks them at a specific temperature, etc.
  I am just trying to help.  The last thing we need is someone getting sick because of a candy bar that was made in my kitchen and then sold to the public.

    Absolutely! In fact, local chapters of college organizations, girl scout troops, etc, make and sell their own goods all of the time to the general public! It's not a crime, nore will it ever be for organizations like ours to make money in this way. In all honesty, that would be like ssaying that anyone selling anything at a farmer's market shouldn't sell it because the product was more than likely made in their home in the case of soaps, candies and other DIY crafts. however, with that said, Dianne, if you are so inclined to give yourself some extra work, then please undertake this task on behalf of our chapter.

      We can absolutely make them in our kitchen.  It is just like having a bake sale.

        Sorry, one more thing...
        There are restrictions when making food for sale.
        I don't think we can just make the candy bars in one of our kitchens.
        I will take it upon myself to find out all of the information.

          Hi all.
          as a chapter we need to raise funds for things that we want to do.
          the state will not give much assistance for convention.
          So we need to work together and raise money for the future.
          the chocolate bar fundraiser is a great idea.  But we need to have everyone participate.  Right now if everyone buys a bag of chocolate chips, or candy melts or anything that will fit in the molds.  We have four sets of molds now and each mold makes two bars each.
          also we will need to raise money to do more things in the community such as the visio faire/expo, attending state convention, going bowling, another chapter picnic, going to state board meetings, donating to the senior center, christmas and easter things for the community, and so much more.
          Marty and I still have a few water bottles.  That need to be sold.
          Jessica when is the next open board meeting?
          We should attend as a chapter
          Especially now that we are getting more support from the state.

          Sincerely,
          Melissa and Pj
