Has your unit signed up to sell popcorn?

Is your unit still on the fence about participating in this Fall's popcorn sale? The Fall popcorn sale is one of the easiest fundraisers that your unit could participate in and gives your scouts the chance to learn life skills like, leadership and entrepreneurship! With the new commission structure, units will have the opportunity to earn more in commissions than in previous years. We are rolling out some new items in this year's sale so it is sure to be a 'POPPING' good time!
