Below is a reminder on some key information on popcorn sales this year. Please contact Dan Clough (djcstrategy@gmail.com; Mobile: 503-3286) with any questions.
- What: Pack 65
Annual popcorn sales! Last year, participating scouts averaged
several hundred dollars in sales with one scout awarded Hershey Bears
tickets from the Council for achieving over $1,000 in sales!!!! Each
scout is asked to target an individual "shoot for the stars"
sales order of $200. As this target may be a little high for first
timers and younger scouts, we are asking that all scouts "Do Their
Best" to participate and raise money for the Pack (buy out
contribution is available - please contact Dan Clough for details).
Proceeds from sales support fun and important annual events such as
Winter Camp, Family Camp, and the Blue & Gold Dinner.
- Who: All Pack
65 Scouts
- How: Individual "Take
Orders."
If you need popcorn sales (or prize) forms, please contact Dan
Clough or your Den leader. Checks for individual sales are to
be made payable to "Hershey Pack 65." Remember -
Pack 65 is again participating in the prize option, so total sales revenue
for each scout counts towards their award and selection of great prizes.
Popcorn Show & Sells - Pack 65 is selling at two
locations this year, Sam's Club on Rt. 322 (9/15, 9/22) and Lowes in
Palmyra (10/13), The first two events are already behind us and were
a great success. Scouts participating in these events generated over
$800 in total sales and earned Pack "popcorn credit!"
Several hundred dollars of the proceeds of these sales will go
directly to the Pack. Great work!
- When: Popcorn
sales run from the start of the scouting year in September through October
15th. All Scout Popcorn forms/orders and payment must be received
by Dan Clough by 10/15! Your Den leaders will help coordinate
getting all order forms and checks in on time. Note that inventory
and orders to the Council are made later this week for the whole Pack, so
we will not be able to fill orders for forms received after 10/15.
Order distribution to Pack 65 will take place on November 9.
Pack distribution to the Dens will take place at a time/location TBA
near this date.
In Scouting,
Pack 65 Leadership Team
