Juliette Gordon Low founded the Girl Scouts Of America in 1912 in Savannah, Georgia. Her house still stands - as an historic landmark! Until recently, Girl Scouts could always be found selling their famous Girl Scout Cookies on the sidewalk in front of the Low home.

UPDATE: On 3/3/11, the Girl Scouts were given permission to sell their cookies on the sidewalk in front of their founder's home.
