Pop Corn Sales
POPCORN SALES start this Thursday, September 2nd. Order forms were handed out at last night's scout meeting. If your son was in attendance he should have brought home an order form, information sheet, and online sales flyer.
This is a great opportunity for the scouts to earn money for next year's summer camp and other troop trips. All of the 35% commission goes back to the scout. Also, for every scout that sells $600, the council will pay for half of his summer camp fee!!
