Pack 313 Popcorn Sale – 2024

The Pack has decided to sell Trails End popcorn this year as a fundraiser, and Jeanne (a Webelos parent) will be the leader for this new adventure! Participation is optional for Scouts.

We are only doing what are called “Wagon Sales” or online sales. (Maybe in a future year we will do storefront sales.) Wagon sales are when you collect orders and then you will deliver the product at a later date. With online sales, anyone can buy product and it will get shipped to them directly. (For the online sales, there is a shipping charge for orders under $65. There is also a fee when ordering certain products online that are heavy. If someone orders more than $65 of items, there is still some small fee for certain items.)

More details are in this document, which includes (on the last page) the six items that the Pack is selling in the Wagon Sale.

What’s really nice about this fundraiser is the commission for our Pack is 33% for the Wagon Sales and 35% for the online sales. Also, depending on how much your Scout sells, there is the opportunity to earn an Amazon gift card. Everyone who sells at least 1 item will also receive a participation patch.

There is also a way to donate popcorn to local ‘Heroes and Helpers’. A donation can also help an online consumer reach that free shipping goal. This year, the Council has chosen the VA in West Roxbury as well as Soldiers Angels Deployed Adoption. Each Scout who earns at least $50 in donations will earn a special patch to complement the participation patch.

If your Scout is interested in selling popcorn, please register at http://www.trails-end.com. We are the Spirit of Adventure Council, and our Unit code is SBB5N.

Then download the Trails End app. There, you will find links to training videos, product information, and the Scout & Parent Guide. There is also more information on the Trails End reward program for an Amazon gift card. The App is where you will take orders as well as payment information. We know it’s a lot, but we highly recommend going through all this information. The products and prices are in the App as well.

Once you are registered you can begin fundraising!!

A few last key bits of information:
– In Wagon Sales, make sure to mark the sale as ‘undelivered’
– All orders need to be made in the app by 10/29 as Jeanne will have to place the order for our products.
– The Pack should be receiving the products on 11/16 so consumers should expect their orders after this date.
– If you receive cash, you can convert the cash to credit or you will have to hang on to it to give to Jeanne.

Any questions, please find Jeanne at the Pack meeting or you can contact her by phone or email.
