Unit Commitment to the 2024 Moon Pie Sale
Every Scout should learn the value of hard work and earning their own way. The popcorn sale is the perfect opportunity to teach this valuable life lesson and fund the most exciting year of Scouting ever. The popcorn sale is not just about selling popcorn, it offers far-reaching benefits beyond just raising funds. It provides valuable learning experiences, promotes personal development, fosters community engagement, and cultivates essential life skills that will benefit scouts long after their popcorn-selling days are over.
Popcorn provides an opportunity for Scouts to engage with their community. They interact with neighbors, friends, and local businesses, building relationships and representing their pack or troop positively. This engagement helps strengthen the bond between Scouts and their community, fostering a sense of belonging and responsibility.

Show and Sell is when scouts have popcorn in hand to show and to sell to customers on the spot. This can be done in several ways.
1) "Wagon Sales" also called "Show and Delivered"- Where the scout goes door to door in their neighborhood with the product in hand.
2) "Storefront Sales" Like setting up a table with popcorn on-hand and selling in front of a store.
