Popcorn!

How can you help us?
Easy... eat some popcorn.

Or, better yet -- gift some to a friend, a work colleague, customer, supplier, employee, or Canadian Troops Overseas!

The entrepreneurial spirit is alive and well in Scouting.
The youth, boys and girls, from ages 5 to 75, of the 1st Binbrook Scout Group are selling popcorn again this year, as our primary fundraiser.

Working with us, you will be directly supporting youth within our own community. You will be giving a gift that not only tastes great, but also clearly identifies you as a supporter of the largest youth movement in the world. Let me further assure you as an involved volunteer, that all profits remain here for our use with the youth directly.

This is truly a win-win-win, situation.

Scout Popcorn is:

Very tasty, very edible, and extremely hard to put down.
Grown and manufactured in North America.
Directly youth supportive, with no admin overhead.
Provided in environmentally friendly re-closable packaging, with smiling youth on the outside, making for a very classy gift. (larger kits include a Gift Box!)
Reasonably priced, when you consider all factors. (read more below)
…and carries none of the stigma or waste, of some past traditional holiday gifts.

Don't like popcorn, or wish to have snacks to gift, but still want to support our Scouts? (click here)

Uniformed youth will deliver the popcorn during the week of November 14th, to your home or place of business.

Or, as an option, we can also deliver directly to end recipients in the case of larger orders, if that is your desire. We are happy to include a special gift note from you as well.

Scouts Canada is a registered charity, but the founder of the Scouting movement always said that a Scout should never beg. They should be willing to work for any money, or sell worthy goods for a reasonable price, in order to raise funds for activities and adventures. That is our goal today, and a value we continue to instil.

Some Frequently Asked Questions...

I don't really need any popcorn, but I want to support the effort of the Scouts, how else can I do that?
As a registered charity, we would be happy to accept your donation, and can issue a tax receipt in return. Please contact us at the email below.

Or, starting this year, you can buy Scout Popcorn through us, that will be shipped to Canadian Forces Troops, on your behalf.

Who makes this stuff?
www.scoutpopcorn.ca is the central website for Canada, operating under www.trails-end.com, and all is grown and made here in North America by the Weaver Popcorn Company.

Who, interestingly enough apparently makes 25% of the world's popcorn, and Scouting accounts for 35% of that!

This isn't the absolute cheapest Popcorn around, how come?

It is after all, a fundraiser, directly supporting youth in our community.
It is a high-quality product, in all aspects. (last year - beating a certain "O-R" brand in taste tests and sales!)
It is grown and manufactured in North America, exceeding all commercial brands in the use of natural and healthy ingredients during the manufacturing process. (ie: to quote one of our parents; this isn't your "dollar store" popcorn)

How can we pay?
We accept cash, cheque, PayPal, and all major credit cards.
Payment is due on delivery, but if you wish to use credit card, we'd prefer to do that ahead of time, as it is done securely online. (email us, and we'll get it done)

Who are we supporting?
Scouts Canada, 1st Binbrook Group.
Click the Gallery link to the left, if you want to see their smiling faces in action.

When do we need to know?
Our ordering deadline is October 28th, so please do contact us before that. (delivery week of November 14th)

How do we order or ask more questions?
Email popcorn@1stBinbrook.org with any questions or orders, and we'll happily take care of you.
If you've been sent here by a youth you know, please be sure to include their name, so that they can get the credit for your order.

Thank you for your support!
