Popcorn

Scouts Can Earn Their Way

Two hallmarks of Scouting is to understand the importance of hard work and self-reliance.

The popcorn sale presents an ideal chance to impart this life lesson while also supporting an incredible year of Scouting activities.

Through this experience, Scouts develop confidence, hone their salesmanship and communication skills, and enjoy a deep sense of achievement. The popcorn sale goes beyond merely selling popcorn; it’s an opportunity to champion Scouting!

Selling popcorn isn't required, but is strongly recommended
