It's Popcorn Time!We need to raise all of the money for the Pack budget this fall in order to take us through the next 12 months. This funding goes toward advancement patches and pins (over $200 in many months), Pinewood Derby cars, and many other things. Please help! Personal SalesScouts should have received a full-color popcorn flyer in the mail in mid-August. If you have not, please contact one of our Pack Popcorn Coordinators: Leslie McAndrew or Laurie Chadwell Flyers will also be available for pick-up at the Pack meeting on September 30.
