It's that time of year to send the troops in Iraq and Afghanistan a gift from home and now you can support the troops and the Boy Scouts at the same time.
They have an online order system that tracks the orders to the scouts and they don't get any money for the sales they get scout bucs. The scout troop gets 25% of the sale amount in scout bucs to use towards camp or to buy sleeping bags etc..
If you could just order $10 dollars worth they'd appreciate it and if you don't want any pop corn you can send it to the troops in Iraq.
Thanks !

Sorry, wasn’t aware my post would do that. I thought your post was for a generic order. Please accept my apologies. Your idea to post was a great one. Congratulations to your son on his order goals. Best of luck to him and his pack. Thanks to everyone who supports the Boy Scouts and our troops.
Thanks !
Thanks again !
Ok, seems like we stalled out ?
My fine young Scout has been out collecting at his local school and has over $300 in orders to benefit his Troop, and over $200 worth of orders to support THE Troops! All from not always liberal public school teachers!!
He set the mark last year for his Troop. He should likely do the same again this year. All in honor of his big brother (and Eagle!!) in the US Air Force.
Wow, you have to be proud :)
And the things I ordered will be given directly to the troops I work with. :)
Thank you !
On each order the following get a slice:
The national BSA
The Local Distric
The The pack
Boy/Cub Scout
Thanks again !
Ok one more time !
The deadline on this to get them to Iraq by Xmas is tomorrow.
