2009 Popcorn Sales

Popcorn helps provide the essential funding that units and the council need to maintain and expand programs for boys - it helps provide the adventures they joined Scouting for. The popcorn sale gives the unit and council camping programs the funding they need to grow and improve.

Why Sell Popcorn - The Benefits

1. Popcorn can fund tremendous programs...programs that become affordable only selling popcorn.

2. Your unit can earn up to 45% of gross sales!!! Some may be concerned that higher commissions can be achieved by selling other products. Don’t be fooled! They may be higher, but popcorn will generate greater income for you because of gross sales potential.

3. All new prizes to choose from. There is no limit to the value of the prizes a Scout earn.

4. Units have their choice of using the council’s prize system (“Scouting for Prizes”) obtaining their own prizes to recognize the Scouts’ hard work.

5. No up-front money is needed and you don’t have to pay for promotional items.

6. Popcorn is an easy to sell item. It’s America’s #1 snack!
