Popcorn FAQs


Why should I sell popcorn?

The popcorn sale, along with volunteerism, “fuels” our pack.  We are 100% self-supporting.  The popcorn proceeds will pay for the following for the entire pack:

  • Scout Handbooks
  • Scout Kerchiefs & Slides
  • Registration & Rechartering fees
  • Achievement/Advancement Awards
  • Pinewood Derby
  • Blue & Gold Banquet
  • End of Year Picnic
  • Pack Sponsored Camping Trips
  • Pack Events (i.e. skating, rock climbing)
  • And so much more......

Can I sell online?

Yes.  Go to http://sell.trails-end.com/login and click Create an Account.  Even if you’ve sold online before, you will need to create a new account.  We are Pack 3050, Blue Jacket District, Dan Beard Council

Trail’s End will ship directly to your online customers.  Your son will get credit for the sales.  No need to turn these sales into me, as I can access them directly.

 

Should I collect payment at the time of sale?

Yes, all money and orders are due on October 23, 2015.

Who should checks be made out to?

If possible, please send in one check made payable to Pack 50 for your popcorn orders. If you receive donations to the Pack, please write a separate check for these. If someone wants to write a check for their order,  they can make it out to you, then you can write one check to the Pack for the total amount of your orders.

 

 When is my order due?

All orders are due to Kristin Andrews, via email, by 10/23/15.  kristin.andrews25@yahoo.com

 

When will the popcorn be delivered?

We will have the popcorn on Friday 11/13/15.  It will be picked up and sorted in the St. Columban cafeteria and available for pickup on Friday evening or Saturday morning.

 

How much popcorn do I have to sell?

Our pack’s sale’s goal is $20,000.  The minimum goal is $400 for one scout, $700 if you have two scouts and $900 if you have three.  The more sales, the more fun!!

 

What if my son does not meet his sales goal?

If you sell:                Your Pack Fee Is:                                                                       

$400                                       $0

$300-$399                            $35
