Every October, we sell Trail's End Popcorn to raise funds for our activities. This raises more than half our budget for camping, admission fees, and trainings for our volunteer leaders.
For 2024-25, we have set a goal of $15,000 popcorn sales.
In 2022, we reached $6,000 with 19 families participating. In 2023-23, we surpassed $12,000 with 24 families.
A storefront is when we set up a table at a public establishment for scout families to sell popcorn. Storefronts are a social acitivty where scouts practice their public speaking and leadership skills.

Families may also sell popcorn online for direct shipping to family/friends as well as wagon sales, which is going door-to-door in their neighborhood. Pack 38 will award our top popcorn and wreath sellers with gift cards to the Scout Shop. And Trail's End award incentive prizes to scouts who pass sales thresholds. .
