Popcorn Fundraiser

The Popcorn Sales Event is how Pack 163 achieves most of its funding for each year. This funding helps to reduce our annual fees that the Scouts need to go on their outings.

We are asking that each Scout and parent help out as much as possible in the Popcorn Sales Event. This year the committee has decided that prizes will be awarded for the goals that individual Scouts achieve. We will talk about the goals and prizes at the Popcorn Sales Kickoff Meeting on September 22 @ 7:00 pm at Brookvale School.

This year there will be a few different opportunities for Scouts to sell the Trails End Popcorn merchandise and meet the goals. Take Orders (meet and greet, door to door sales, etc.) The Dale Show and Sell, and Online Sales by e-mailing family and friends.

Some of the prizes that will be available this year:

• Tickets to a Golden State Warriors Basketball game
• Bear Archery 1st Shot Bow Set
• Mitchell Travel Fishing Pack
• Coleman Sundome Camping Tent
• Meade 100 x 50 Telescope
• Apple iPod Shuffle
• Garmin eTrex Legend GPS Unit

There will be many more prizes available that we will show at the Popcorn Kickoff. Please help support our pack this year so they can go on as many fun outings as possible. The Popcorn Sales Event will provide them that opportunity as well as reduce the costs to each family.

Pack 163 Popcorn Show & Sell at Dale Hardware

This year we will be holding our Popcorn Show & Sell at Dale Hardware on October 3rd & 4th (Saturday & Sunday) in front of the store. The store hours are from 7 am to 7 pm each day. We would like to have two adults and two scouts at the booth during that time. Please sign up for one or more of the time slots below to help out pack. Don’t be shy, you can sign up for more than one time slot. It will be an excellent opportunity to help out the pack and meet with other adults and Scouts.

Three Primary Components

Take-Orders: Boys talk to friends, neighbors, church members, and others try ask them to buy popcorn. They may even go door-to-door with adult supervision. These orders will be filled in November for delivery by the Scouts.

Show and Sell: Boys sell popcorn in front of busy store like Dale Hardware. We will have products available to sell, so customers can take home the popcorn right away.

Online: Boys work with parents to register at trails-end.com. Once there, you can send notes to friends and relatives out of the area and they can order online. Make sure to select Pack 163 so our Pack gets the credit.
