Popcorn

Popcorn - (click link for current year information and materials)

Face it parents: we grew up in a different time. As kids, nothing was handed to us. We either worked or helped to earn our rewards: money, an activity with friends, or something we wanted. Scouting still believes in and stands for the core value of earning!

Benefits to Your Scout and Family:

• Teaches Scouts the value & process of setting and working toward goals
• Gives Scouts a strong sense of accomplishment through recognition
• Enhances communication, leadership skills and confidence in your Scout
• Scouts can earn valuable rewards including gift cards and prizes

Ways to Sell:

Take Orders

• The Scout requests popcorn on consignment (variety could vary). He sells what he can and returns the rest with no penalty.
• The Scout with his Akela goes door to door with a Take Order Form. The customer writes his/her order on the Take Order Form and the Scout collects the money.
• The Scout processes the order and delivers the Popcorn to the Customer in a few weeks.

Selling at Work

• Mom and/or Dad take an order form to their work.
• Fellow co-workers write their order on the order form.
• Mom and/or Dad deliver product and collect the money in a few weeks.
• (It is best to collect the money upfront when possible)

Selling Online

Scouts can also create their own Show and Sell

• By reaching out to local businesses and getting permission to set up a table for sales. If you do, be sure to let us know. We're happy to help you help us by coordinating other Scout's participation and providing the popcorn!
