POPCORN CAMPAIGN 2011

To: Parents of Cub Scouts Pack 169

From: Popcorn Kernel - Chuck Leverich

Our Goal: 100% participation from all Scouts:

1. Sell Minimum $125 OR

2. Buyout Option $40 OR

3. Combination of selling and buyout to achieve $40 per scout revenue for Pack

IE: Scout sells $60 of popcorn. 32% of his sales comes to Pack 169 as revenue which equals $19.20. His obligation to the pack fundraiser is $40. Therefore, remainder due to the pack is $40 - $19.20 = $20.80.


Neighborhood Blitz's:

  A day designated to pick up product from Kernel's home at 6344 Churchill Downs Place, Huber Heights, take to your neighborhood and sell that day. Any unsold product and money collected that day will be returned to Kernel the same day. Statistics show that by walking around your neighborhood. Scouts average $100 to $150 in sales per hour

Try It!! And earn rewards.
Sunday, September 18th 12-6pm

A list of participants is requested so that a Blitz product package can be assembled prior to pickup. eMail me at Pack169Popcorn@gmail.com to let meknow what date(s) youwould like to participate. Class A Uniform is required for selling popcorn via TakeOrder and Blitz.


Online Sales:

Crate an online sales account through TrailsEnd.com to sell to family and friends anywhere!!


Revenue Generated from Neighborhood Blitz's, Take Order, and Online Sales will be credited towards individual scout sales for prizes and will follow the guidelines set below under the Scout Accounts for Pack 169 Bucks.


Scout Accounts for Pack 169 Bucks:

After the $125 minimum sales goal is reached, 32% of additional Take Order and Neighborhood Blitz sales will be credited as Pack 169 Bucks into the individual scout's account.


IE: Scout sells $425 in popcorn

The profit ($40) from the first $125 of sales goes towards the obligation to the Pack. Then, 32% of the additional $300 in sales will be credited as Pack 169 Bucks into the individual scout's account ($300 x 32% = $96).


Pack 169 Bucks may be used for any event, charges, dues, etc. that the Pack Treasurer collects and disburses payment for Resident Camp, Day Camp, Tag a longs, T-shirts for scout or family, Cave Overnight for scout or family, Annual Dues, etc.


We are a nonprofit organization; therefore if a scout quits the Pack, no cash can be disbursed to individuals from Pack 169 Bucks. Pack 169 Bucks can be carried over to next years cub scout account.
