Popcorn Fundraiser
Just a reminder to keep taking orders and money for BSA popcorn until October 19th. Please see my 8/15/21 email for details. The first Fill-It-Up Prize drawing will be on October 5th – if you fill up an order form, you are eligible to enter the drawing. Scouts will earn 60% of the profit from the popcorn sales in Scout Bucks, so this is a good way to help offset your family’s Scouting expenses.
Just a reminder – Scouts need to bring their BSA Handbook to all Troop meetings
