Popcorn

A Time-Honored, Tasty Tradition

Popcorn is a truly unique fundraiser. This goal-oriented program helps youth develop many life skills while supporting their own way through the Scouting program. Whether you’re new to the sale, or a caramel-seasoned pro, we look forward to supporting your sale as you Build an Adventure!

We are pleased to announce that we are continuing our partnership with Pecatonica River Popcorn for our 2023 sale. This will allow us to continue delivering high-quality product, packaging, the option for free shipping on online orders as well as many other benefits. The Pecatonica River Popcorn product line-up will be focused around collectible tins that offer value to your customers and will be filled with a product of the highest quality.
