2018 Popcorn Sales around the corner!

Posted on July 25, 2018

As you are working with your Units to determine your popcorn sale commitment this month, keep in mind:

– Online sales begin August 1

– Unit sales plans and initial sales orders will be due in August

– Unit popcorn kickoff parties are to be completed by the first week in September

This year the Council will be holding the first annual Golden Eagle Neighborhood Popcorn Blitz on Saturday, September 22.  Unit members can work together in one or both shifts (9:30-11 or 1-3) and will be assigned a neighborhood in which to work door to door.  The Council will provide popcorn to be used in the sale, and all sales will be credited back to the Scouts and Units.  Prizes will be awarded to the highest-selling Scout and Unit during the blitz.  For more details and to Register for the event see the Council website listing linked in the event title above.

Good luck to all on a successful Popcorn selling season!!
