Fundraiser: Popcorn

- Scouts in our units have sold $8,100 so far in Popcorn! Our Troop goal is $15,000.
- Storefronts are how scouts make the bulk of our popcorn sales, and are a quick and easy way to earn money toward Scout accounts. Brendan Murphy raked in $590 in two hours at the Glendale Lowe's on Saturday (that was an exceptional shift as scouts typically average $300/two hour shifts)!
- Plenty of storefront shifts still available. Please sign up for them via the app by the Thursday before, or we lose the slots. 
- If you took popcorn home, you need to sell it in the next few weeks, or return it. 

Sign up on the Trail's End app or contact Tom Murphy for assistance
