Scouts and Parents,  It's popcorn season again.  This is our biggest fundraiser of the year and the money that Scouts earn offsets the cost of our programming and equipment.  If you participated last year, you may begin selling now in the Trails End app.  If you are new to selling popcorn, you can download the app and enter our unit code QRETF.  Do not hesitate to reach out to Sean Brown @ theoldduncow@gmail.com should you have any questions.  Be sure to check the app and the troop calendar for store front opportunities.  You can sign up for existing shifts on the app.  Remaining storefront dates are 3 and 4 October.

The Garza crew will be out front at 10:15 to get in at 10:30 and get a cabana and gather any scout to let them know where our cabana is if they want to leave anything with us.  More details in the calendar event!
