Scouts Of The Triune District Have Another Successful Fall Popcorn Sale
Cub Scouts, Boy Scouts, Siblings, Parents, Grandparents, Volunteers, VFW's,
and Churches all came together in the month of October to ask their
communities to support local Scouting programs. Cub Scouts and Boy Scouts of
the Triune District (North Philly, Center City, South Philly, West Philly,
and Southwest Philly) asked neighbors, friends, relatives, parent
co-workers, and community members to help them go to museums, zoos,
aquariums, sports games, and camp. When our community was asked, they did
not waver in their support. Even in these challenging times, our Scouts
were able to raise a record amount to help support their Scouting programs.
The Numbers
This year, 11 units of the Triune District came together to sell over
$37,500 of popcorn. Over $12,000 was earned by units to be used to reduce
the cost of Scouting in Philadelphia. Scouts sold over 887 bags of Caramel
Corn (a record!), and a total of 2,270 products! This year's top spot was
held onto by Troop and Pack 133, with $11,369 in sales (~$3,900 in
commission), followed up by Pack 16 with $10,713 in sales (~$3,600 in
commission). Congratulations also go to Troops 16, 70, 98, 152,176 and Packs
47, 98, and 176, who had a combined $15,559 in sales (~$4,600 in
commission). We had over 260 scouting families raise money for their local
Scouting Programs.
What's Next?
Unit Leaders have finished placing orders for the recognitions that each
Scout has earned. Every Scout who participated in this year's sale will
earn a _"Project Popcorn"_ Patch or Pin. Those who were able to sell
amounts above $250 should also receive a gift card to Walmart with values
starting at $10, and going up to a maximum of $200. In addition, those who
sold over $600 will receive a limited-edition _$600 Club_ Patch, a
[2]Zyclone, and an invitation to join the other _$600 Club_ members for a
day of fun in 2012. Units are encouraged to not simply give the gift cards,
patches, and zyclones at the end of the meeting to parents, but to make a
formal presentation to each member of the unit and celebrate their
achievements
