Pack Fundraisers

Pack Fundraiser Descriptions

Trails End Popcorn & Burgers’ Smokehouse Meats:

– Blitz Sales

A one-time event to kick off your fundraising season with a bang.  All participating scouts will pair off into teams during a 2-hour window and compete to sell the highest combined dollar value in Burger’s & Trail’s End products.  The winning team will be handsomely rewarded at the next pack meeting.

– Storefront Sales

During our annual popcorn & Burger’s meat sales, one of the easiest and most profitable ways to sell product is to do one or more storefront shifts. These events consist of scouts working together to sell popcorn directly to customers at various establishments throughout Columbia. The scouts working a shift will split the profits equally. Check the Trail’s End app to sign up for an available shift. Storefront sales occur in September and October.

– Individual Sales

In addition to storefront sales, the second method of sales is by individual scouts to friends, family, and other community members. To perform individual sales, scouts collect orders from their customers, submit their orders and all payments and deliver the products to their customers. Individual sales occur in August, September and October.

Trails End provides various rewards based on amount of sales.

Resources:

Holiday Wreath Sales

Pack 703, along with other local units sell holiday wreaths from Noble Valley Farms during mid November with delivery shortly after Thanksgiving. Individual scouts sell to friends, family, and other community members.  To perform individual sales, scouts can either (1) collect orders from their customers, submit their orders and all payments and deliver the products to their customers; or (2) point their customers to a website designed just for the scout, which allows all sales to be attributed to an individual scout, and deliver the products to their customers when the order arrives.

Thrifty Ticket

Thrifty Tickets are coupon discount cards created by the Great Rivers Council in partnership with local retailers.  Each card is sold to customers for a face value of $10.00 and provides several discounts and one-time use coupons to local area business.  For each Thrifty Ticket sold, a profit of $6.50 is earned. Thrifty Ticket sales occur from mid February to mid April.

Restaurant Takeover

Pack 703 partners with local restaurants and percentage of total sales brought in by the Pack. Any profit realized from a restaurant is deposited in the Pack’s general fund.
