A big welcome to all the new families joining the Pack this year! Glad to have you with us.
Everyone, here's some additional information and a run down of what to expect in the near future regarding Popcorn:
Sept 17, 6:30pm - Pack Meeting at Glacier Edge School.
You'll learn all about the popcorn sale, which is our one huge fundraiser of the year. Learn about the popcorn pick up procedures, how to obtain more popcorn to sell, and get some selling tips. We've got some awesome new prize additions this year - drones, underwater cameras, telescopes, and remote control toy building kit, just to name a few.
In addition to door to door selling, scouts can sell popcorn through 'Show & Sell' which is selling at a booth. Three locations this year - Millers Grocery, Copps (Maple Grove Drive), and Shopko (West side). Those attending the Pack meeting, will have the first opportunity to sign up for Show & Sell. You will get more information from your Den Leader, and you will have to provide your preferred selling times to your Den Leader, prior to the Pack meeting if at all possible to keep things moving along.
Sept 18:
After the Pack meeting, the Show & Sell will become available to those not at the Pack meeting, and empty slots can be acquired. Watch for emails from Melissa Albright.
