Parents, Guardians, Supporters and Youth

Each fall the Beaver Scouts, Cub Scouts, Scouts & Venturer Scouts generate the funds they need to run their programs from the sale of Scout Popcorn. By taking part in Scout Popcorn campaigns, youth gain valuable life, leadership and business skills like marketing, strategy development and financial management. Along the way, Scouting youth share experiences that prepare them for success in the world, all while funding their own adventures. We hope you will support your youth as they go about funding their Scouting programs through the sale of Scout Popcorn.

How the program works

• Order your Scout Popcorn by completing a line on the youth’s Order Form
• Provide a cheque made out to ‘Scouts Canada’ (or cash) for the full amount of the order to the youth
• The youth returns the order form and money to their Section Scouter for processing
• The youth pickup the popcorn for prompt delivery to their customers

Important dates

• Order forms must be returned to the section Scouter on or before your last meeting in October.
• Orders must be completed in the system before Noon October 28th, 2019!
• Popcorn will be available for delivery after November 16th, 2019
