Redlands, CA – August 9, 2024 — California Inland Empire Council (CIEC) is excited to announce the launch of the annual Scouting America Popcorn Sale, which begins on Saturday Aug 10th and runs through Sunday Oct 20th. This yearly fundraiser not only helps support our local Scouts but also offers the community a delicious way to contribute to a great cause.
The Scouting America Popcorn Sale provides vital resources for Pack & Troop activities, community service projects, and leadership training. This year, Scouts will be selling a variety of gourmet popcorn flavors, including classic Microwave Butter, Salted Caramel, S’mores, White Cheddar, Kettle Corn, and traditional Popping Corn.
Local Sales: Be on the ‘look out’ as Scouts will be at stores across the San Bernardino and Riverside Counties from morning till evening.
“Participating in the Popcorn Sale is an invaluable experience for our Scouts,” said Matt Bear, Scout Executive and CEO. “It teaches them important skills like goal setting, budgeting, and customer service while they work to support their goals and activities.”
