Popcorn Sales FUNraiser

VENTURA COUNTY COUNCIL POPCORN FUNDRAISER

Each year, Ventura County Council sponsors a Trail’s End Popcorn sale to raise money for local Scouting programs and activities. The annual product sales of Ventura County Council provide a unique fundraising opportunity for Scouting units to raise funds to provide a quality Scouting experience for their Scouts and families. Annually, the Council provides units with opportunities to participate in the fall Product Sale and spring Camp Card sale.

Selling online is the best way to sell to friends and family who live far away. Online sales count toward Scout rewards. Participants can send emails to friends and family asking them to purchase Trail’s End products online. The email includes a link allowing them to begin shopping right away. Customers can pay with a credit card, and the products are shipped directly to the customer by Trail’s End. The advantages of online sales is that the Scout doesn’t have to collect money or deliver product. LEARN MORE ABOUT ONLINE DIRECT.
