This coming weekend we have a Show-n-Sell at Giant Eagle in Robinson

There is a new app this year for popcorn (trails end).  There is also training for parents – app.trail-end.com.  Please take a few moments to put this app on your phone and watch the training video.


Trail’s End Popcorn is our main fund raising event that helps our Pack do all that we do. This allows the Pack to pay for books, advancements, pinewood derby cars, rain gutter regatta boats and park pavilions for pack meetings, just to name a few..  There are several ways to participate in popcorn sales:. 

  • We have Show-n-Sells (where we stand in front of a store, like LOWE’S, and have our table with popcorn and sell).  Show-n-Sell hours will earn an hourly rate based on sales and donations. Last year the hourly rate was about $45/hour for sales with additional $20/hour for donations.
  • Your scout can do Door-to-door sales with a parent or another scout.  
  • We have online sales (no shipping cost this year) – great for family members that live far away
  • We would like to do some organized neighborhood selling if possible – will be asking for ideas and help organizing. 

This coming weekend we have a Show-n-Sell at Giant Eagle in Robinson – link for sign-up sheet.  The Pack has one door for sales.  The signup sheet is on our website.  I am working on a few more sites in the coming few weeks.  Scouts MUST be in uniform to sell popcorn.  

We are asking all scouts to sell an amount of $425 of popcorn.  If your scout sells $425 in popcorn, the profit earned would pay for their dues for next year – no money for dues would have to come out of your pocket.  IT PAYS TO SELL POPCORN! Scout profit after dues paid will go to their scout account and funds in their scout account can be used for any event (example: Pirate Game) or purchase (uniform, camping gear) related to scouts. 

***IMPORTANT *** If you opt NOT TO PARTICIPATE IN THE POPCORN FUNDRAISING for the Pack, we will require an additional $40 in November when we collect the Dues for 2020.   

OUR NEXT DEN MEETING IS ON WEDNESDAY, SEPT 18. 

OUR FIRST PACK MEETING IS ON FRIDAY, SEPT 20.
