It's time to Start Planning Your Most Outstanding Popcorn Sale Ever!

Despite the winter we have had I have it on good authority that Spring is certainly on it's way. Spring is the best time to start planning your Program for the fall and your Fall Popcorn Sale. Our most successful units always start planning their program in the spring to ensure everything is on track. Here are some key Popcorn tasks you should be working on:

  • Identify a Popcorn Kernel for your Unit and let us know you will be participating. You can use the link at the bottom of this email.
  •  Start thinking about your program for next year and what it will cost so you can set a popcorn goal.
  • Attend an upcoming training, we are hosting them every month this Spring. Get a chance to talk to other leaders in an informal setting. 
  •  Select the date of your Unit Kickoff. This should be a stand-alone meeting at the end of the summer to help build excitement about the sale.
  • Start thinking about Unit incentives. Come up with a unique top seller prize for your unit and smaller incentive for other categories.
  •   Identify and book locations for Show & Sell.

As always I am committed to helping you be successful with your Popcorn Sale. Let me know if you have any questions, or if I can be of any assistance as you start planning for Fall 2014!

Yours in Scouting,

Marc Cardin

Director of Support Services

Last Fall our Scouts sold over $16,000 in military donations. I often get asked questions about the military donation option and how/where the popcorn goes. Check out this quick video that  shows you military donations being delivered!
