It's Popcorn Time!!

Mrs. DeMore will attend the August 10th meeting to distribute popcorn order forms. Selling popcorn is important because it generates income for the Troop to carry out our activities and income to the Council to serve our Troop. Most important, however, is that the Troop splits the profits with you - approximately 16% of what you sell goes into your account to be used for any expenses, like summer camp.

There have been some changes for this year, including:
  • Better prizes - Walmart gift cards are available at every level (beginning with sales totaling $250) and Amazon gift cards are available if you sell $450 or more, and the gift card values have increased!
  • Better flavor (and they've changed the butter flavor ingredients so your house won't smell anymore)!
  • Environmentally friendly packaging - no more tins!
  • Marshmallow blaster cross-bows available to everyone who sells $600 or more - to be demonstrated on Tuesday!

You can begin selling tomorrow. Forms and order money collected are due back to Mrs. DeMore by November 9th.
