A: The Girl Scout Motto is “Be Prepared,” With that said, the girls should participate in
both the Fall Product and Cookie Programs and earn the participation patches. It would
be advantageous for the girls to have met the requirement, in the event that they need
raise additional funds towards their Gold Award Project, than to be in a position where
they need to raise additional funds and not have met the requirement.

This is encouraging the scouts to do the sales to "be prepared" "in the event that they need
raise additional funds towards their Gold Award Project".   It is not requiring them to do so.
