Be Prepared! Let's follow our motto and start preparing ourselves and our unit for the popcorn sale. These are great action steps to take now so they are handled before the sale starts.


  • Make sure you are familiar with the MAC Popcorn Landing page.
  • If you have system questions, visit the Trail's End Training tab in the leader portal.
  • Prepare for kickoff! Are you ready to explain the details for popcorn AND have fun?!
  • Plan your Initial Order: Look at last year's sales, how many Scouts you have, etc.
  • Units can order up to 100% of prior year sales. If your unit is new to popcorn, reach out to your district team for help.
  • Make sure that you don't have too many (or too few) Storefront slots! and continue to checkback often throughout the sale.
