Popcorn Kernel Info

The sale of the Trails End Popcorn in the fall is a critical element in the fundraising program for funding Troop 215 activities. Each Scout in the troop is expected to make a commitment to this program, as each Scout has or will benefit from the funds that are raised in the effort. As dictated by Trails End and the Cape Fear Council, the Troop receives 40% of the total sales profit. This money goes entirely into the Troop 215 general fund to offset Troop expenses not covered by the dues (equipment purchases, transportation rentals, court of honor/banquet supplies, etc.) Popcorn sales can be done both as Show-n-Sell group efforts as well as individual door-to-door or online sales.

The Popcorn Kernel is the adult leader who organizes all aspects of the sale for the troop. Resources can be found in the T215 Treasurer/Fundraising account: WilmingtonTroop215@gmail.com.
