Popcorn sales are a great way for units and Scouts to raise funds for all the activities, programs, membership fees, and adventures throughout the year.
Just how easy is it to get started for the Popcorn sale?
Step 1: Sign up your unit to sell popcorn by CLICKING HERE (You will need our council code – 660hawk)
Click on the Account Login button in the upper right, select Scout Boss from the dropdown menu.
Once you are on the next page, you will need to click on the Create Unit Profile button.
Even if your unit had a profile in the Pecatonica system prior you will need to create a new profile, but you will be linked to your unit’s history. View the sign-up tutorial (Go to Scout Boss Platform Overview) and other helpful videos by CLICKING HERE!

Step 3: Plan your year!

Step 4: Invite your Scouts
Once the unit is in the Pecatonica system kernels /leaders can invite the Scouts by setting up Scout seller ID’s.
