Popcorn Sale
One of the council’s suggested money-earning projects is the annual popcorn sale. With a little imagination, many units have raised sizable amounts of money for unit accounts.
What if we didn’t sell popcorn?
·
Camp fees would increase
·
Camp improvements would slow
·
Equipment would not be replaced as regularly
·
Costs for all events would increase
·
Campership dollars would shrink
·
Less staff at camp
Highlights of the Fall 2010 sale include:
1. High profits to your unit: Your unit can receive a base 35% cash commission, with a bonus 5% when you sell 0ver $10,000 worth of popcorn
