2021 What's Poppin' Volume 4
The Fall Product Sale is progressing very well. Thank you to all the units participating in this year's sale. Many units began Show & Sell with some uncertainty but have been diligently working towards their goal with great success. All units should be checking the progress of your unit’s Take Orders. The success of Take Order is equally as important as Show & Sell. Remember that while this fundraiser benefits your unit, it also provides support to the PA Dutch Council to implement programs for your Scouts and to maintain two council camps and the Council Service Center for your use.
