We just turned in my son’s sales today. He cracked $1500!

I know of one other scout in our pack who is close on his tail so I think we’re going to have a good year.

This is a great fundraiser because the product quality is so very good that people can’t wait for scouts to come to their homes so they can re-load on popcorn.

We really worked the neighborhood this year. At one house, an elderly lady answered the door. She said that her and her husband couldn’t eat popcorn anymore, but she gave my son $2.00 cause he looked like such a good young boy. He was doing the dance on her porch so I asked if he could use her bathroom. She wanted to introduce me to her husband. It was really cool, we found out that they were lifetime citizens in our city and they built the first home in our subdivision about 60 years ago.

Pretty cool conversation for both of us.
