ANNUAL FUNDRAISER: POPCORN SALE STARTS
Every year the Cub Scouts and Boy Scouts across America sell popcorn door to door to raise money for Scouting. This Fall the Scouts will be providing their customers the opportunity to donate a portion to show their appreciation for their military servicemen and servicewomen. Last year consumers donated 300 tons of Trails End popcorn to U.S. Military. A gift to tell them thanks for all their hard work to keep all our families safe. This new program gives your popcorn customers the chance to add $25 donations of Trail's End Popcorn for military men and women. The popcorn will be distributed by Support Our Troops. Learn more at the Support Our Troops website.

Last year a Boy Scout from Portsmouth, Ohio in the Simon Kenton Council, sold $12,531 worth of popcorn and was in 3rd place for the Top Sellers in the Central Region of the United States.
Boys everywhere need a helping hand, a lift up, and your purchase of popcorn gives them the boost they need. More than 70% of your purchase goes to help boys in your local Scout Council. It pays for the activities they do, the camps they attend, and for necessary equipment. Each Scout is responsible, along with his family, for raising money for his Pack or Troop. Your assistance through your popcorn purchase is appreciated very much. In addition to buying Trail's End from a Scout, you may purchase popcorn directly from the OrderPopcorn.com website and your favorite Scout and his Pack or Troop will receive credit. He must give you his Order Key number so you can use it when you order Trail's End Popcorn. Thank you for your continued support of Scouting.
Remember to sell those official OSU commemorative tins and the new Trail Mix! Customers can give the popcorn tins as Christmas gifts to family & friends, and everybody loves the microwave popcorn! Start Poppin'.Labels: boyscouts, fundraiser, popcorn, sale, scouting, scouts
