Selling popcorn gives our Scouts a chance to earn part of their way to Scouting events, and it helps to fund Mohegan Council's operations, which supports us in delivering the program. This year's sale features some great prizes and incentives. Each Scout can apply 15% of his sales toward Scout summer camp, events or registration fees.
Learning to knock on a door, look someone in the eye, and ask him/her to support Scouting is a great way to build a Scout's confidence.
