Trapper Trails Council Popcorn & Jerky Presentation 5/2/19 1 Why Sell Popcorn & Jerky? Why Plan? What’s the big Deal? • Make Scouting affordable for every family • Retain Current Scouts and Attract new ones • Send more Scouts to camp & Offer better activities and programs. • Recruit and retain more leaders • Deliver the Promise… A better, more fun and exciting annual program The Reality….. • Some Units either do NOT plan their program, or give a haphazard effort trying to do so • Some Units rarely involve their Scouts and Parents in the program planning process • Some Units have a budget or set goals for their Popcorn & Jerky fundraiser. • It’s difficult to offer an exciting program without adequate funds. Therefore, these units struggle to recruit & retain members. Failing to Plan is Planning to Fail Ideal Year of Scouting Timeline Popcorn Timeline Jerky Timeline 1. May/June: Planning, Budgeting & 1.
