A tremendous THANK YOU to everyone that made a donation or purchased popcorn from Jake! This year he was able to contribute a total of $3,670 towards the Scouting program and successfully added $145 to his Trails End Scholarship.

Selling popcorn is an exciting way for Jake to learn how to speak to others, set a plan, and put in the necessary work to accomplish his goals. Being creative and entrepreneurial is a central theme in scouting. With the challenges of selling popcorn, a scout begins to build important lifelong skills.

When Jake and I began discussing what he could spend his reward money on, I mentioned how he could pay it forward and donate to Toys for Tots or the local food back he volunteered at before covid struck. I am ecstatic to say that with excitement Jake said he would donate $25 dollars to the Toys for Tots Foundation and $25 dollars to the Wauconda Food Bank. This warmed my heart so much, that I told him I would be matching his donation.

Kindness truly comes in all shapes and sizes, and it can be incredibly powerful in its various forms. In a world that can feel like it is filled with darkness, you can make a meaningful difference in someoneā€™s day and life by paying it forward with kindness.

Scoutā€™s Good Turn a reminder to ā€˜be kind to everyone, no matter who they areā€™ 18/08/2021

Do a Good Turn Daily!

Some Good Turns are big - saving a life, helping out after floods or other disasters, recycling community trash, working with your patrol on conservation projects.

But Good Turns are often small, thoughtful acts - helping a child cross a busy street, going to the store for an elderly neighbor, cutting back brush that is blocking a sign, doing something special for a brother or sister, welcoming a new student to your school.

A Good Turn is more than simple good manners. It is a special act of kindness.

Jakeā€™s Scout Popcorn Store

Jake is currently a Tiger Scout and has been actively involved with the scouting program for a year. The scouting program has helped Jake establish the values of being a scout and has created memories that will last a lifetime. Scouts and their families are responsible for raising money for their units, so your purchase directly helps them. Adventures in scouting build character and leadership, to create memories that last a lifetime.

This will be Jakeā€™s first year participating in popcorn sales and as parents, we are hoping he can take advantage of The Trails End Scholarship Program (https://www.trails-end.com/scholarship.)

Scouts who sell at least $2,500 in any calendar year will have 6% of their Qualified Product Sales count towards their own Trail's End Scholarship. Once enrolled, 6% of their sales each year will go towards the scholarship. Every year, the Top 5 Scouts in each region (Northeast, South, Central, West) will receive an additional 6% of their Qualified Product Sales credited towards their scholarship, up to the $1,000 annual maximum.
