This
just in…Online Popcorn
Sales Competition
In the last edition of the Council Kernel Corner we announced our Online Popcorn Sales Competition (referenced below) and we have seen a very large increase in online sales over the past week.
Please make sure your Scouts know about this competition and its great prizes.
The Scout from each District who has sold the most Popcorn online from July 1st through October 31st will receive 4 passes for Florida EcoSafaris Coach Safari expedition:
AND a $25.00 gift card to a movie theatre.
In addition, the Scout who sells the most Popcorn online in the Council will receive a brand new / latest generation IPod Touch!!
Please make sure your Scouts are utilizing the online sales function of this year’s Popcorn Campaign. Many Scouts have relatives and family friends that live somewhere throughout our country…let’s
make sure those relatives and family friends get a chance to make sure our Scouts have a great Scouting Year powered by Popcorn.

Yes, we have popcorn products at the Council Office for your unit to get.

Military Donation
Prizes from our Council
(NEW)
Scouts from all over the Council have submitted their Military Donation totals on the Council’s Popcorn website to receive the Special Council Military Donation Patches. So in September,
October and November once a Scout receives $150.00 in Military Donations
he will be able to register at the Council Popcorn website (http://popcorn.cflscouting.org)
to receive a special Silver 2014 Central Florida Council Military Shoulder Strip Patch set that he can wear on his uniform.
Once a Scout receives $250.00 in Military Donations he will able to register for the special Gold 2014 Central Florida Council Military Shoulder Strip Patch set.
This Military Donation prize system is cumulative so if a Scout sells $150.00 he can enter his information to receive the special Silver 2014 Military Shoulder Strip Patch set and then once he receives another
$100 in Military Donations he will be able to enter his information to receive the special Gold Military Shoulder Strip Patch set.
Tips
for Show n Sells !!
 
Show N Sells have been a large part of every Central Florida Council Unit’s Popcorn Sale for many years. The following are some helpful tips for Show n Sells: Choose right locations, secure site early, create sign-up sheet
for scouts in your unit and as always….wear your uniform. Please remember not to over over schedule the Scouts and make sure to keep the Scouts in engaged. Making signs always is a good selling point. And make sure Scouts practice, practice, practice. If
you have any more suggestions / tips / or successes stories for Show n Sells please email Chris Crowley so we
can share with everyone.
