learn to develop a unit budget for the year by planning activities, determining
costs, then deciding on financing through dues and/or popcorn sales. It is a required
session for those who did not attend in May if the unit wishes to earn the
maximum commission from popcorn  sales,
along with attending the popcorn kickoff.

opportunity for most Units. This program will emphasize the benefits of popcorn
sales to your unit as well as other ideas to give your unit great experiences
in the upcoming year. Scouts can earn enough to pay for
Summer Camp. Units can earn enough to pay for activities and awards for the year.
