The current event is about how the economy is effecting girl scout cookie sales forcing 8 yr old Wild Freeborn to advertise over the internet.To collect money from people and deliver over the internet is very much illegal according to the girl scout law. Wild Freeborn did not break the rule because although she "advertised" online but she delivered and collect the money in person. Wild Freeborns goal was to sell 12000 boxes of cookies so that her and her troop could go to a scout camp. In conclusion she was short of selling to her goal so she only got the scout trip for herself. Wilde Freeborn may have revolutionized the girl scout cookie selling world.
