Support your local Boy Scouts of America troop by popping some corn
“I was in the Boy Scouts for about four years until my troop disbanded. It is really one of the best activites youth can get involved in and nearly every scout I have known has been a class act due to the discipline the Scouts have instilled in them.” – Ted Stevens, American politician
The quote above is well said, as many scouts can and will attest to this organization’s commitment to instilling a lifetime of values and character. Not able to do it alone, if it wasn’t for volunteers, parents, caregivers, and local support throughout communities, scouting programs funded through the Boy Scouts of America would not be possible.
Local scouts of Grand Rapids are part of the Gerald R. Ford Council. Divided into four districts, based on geographical location, the council serves as main headquarters for hundreds of scouts and units spanning over a dozen counties. According to Gerald R. Ford Council’s website, last year, over 70 percent of the fund-raiser’s proceeds stayed within local councils. Of that amount, one-third of a council’s proceeds went directly to the units that sold the popcorn, helping fund camping trips and individual equipment for the scouts.
For over 30 years, Trail’s End has been in partnership with the Boy Scouts of America to bring you only the best in quality and gourmet popcorn. The hard part is choosing between a wide variety of flavors including chocolate and caramel in addition to cheese. Products are available in both microwaveable packets and assorted gift tins. Find yourself ”powered by popcorn” as Trail’s End’s motto states, when you are able to not only donate to a good cause, but also give a gift this holiday season that will by no means be wasted.
