Trail's End is Back!

Popcorn Sales can fully fund your scouts:

Face it parents: we grew up in a different time. As kids, nothing was handed to us. We either worked or helped to earn our rewards: money, an activity with friends, or something we wanted. Scouting still believes in and stands for the core value of earning!

Benefits to Your Scout and Family:

• Scouts can pay their own way.

• Teaches Scouts the value & process of setting and working toward goals

• Gives Scouts a strong sense of accomplishment through recognition

• Enhances communication, leadership skills and confidence in your Scout

• Scouts can earn valuable rewards including gift cards and prizes  

Sales Goals:

Below are some goals you and your Scout may want to strive for...

Ways to Sell:    

Show and Sells - AKA Storefronts:

• We've obtained permission from local businesses to set up a sales table.  Show and Sells have plenty of products on-hand for people to buy.  Different Scouts work at the table in shifts.  Always have adult supervision.  

• Check the calendar for show and sell times and other important details and contact our popcorn kernel Rachel Sharp to sign up.

Wagon Sales:

• The Scout with his/her Akela goes door to door with the app or an Order Form.  Order Forms will be provided during the Popcorn Kickoff 

• The customer writes his/her order on the Take Order Form and the Scout collects the money.

• The Scout processes the order and delivers the Popcorn to the Customer in December.

Selling at Work:

• Mom and/or Dad take an order form to their work.

• Fellow co-workers write their order on the order form.

• Mom and/or Dad deliver product and collect the money in a few weeks.

• (It is best to collect the money upfront when possible)

Online Sales:

• Use the Trails End app to send out links to family and friends.

• The Scout communicates his/her Order Key via email, phone, and so on, to potential or existing customers. The Customer can go online and purchase popcorn with a Credit Card

• The Product is shipped directly from Trail’s End to the customer and the Scout and Unit receive credit for the Sale.

Prizes and Rewards:

• Receive prizes from Trail-End (see order forms)

• District and Council Top Individual Sellers Reward 

• Dues, Day Camp or Trips paid!
