Popcorn & Adventure Cards

2023 Popcorn

The Power of Popcorn

We believe that every eligible youth should have the opportunity to experience the life changing adventures that Scouting offers regardless of their socioeconomic status.

Each year the Western Los Angeles County Council (WLACC) partners with Trail’s-End to sell popcorn to help units deliver the best possible program possible to our Scouts.

We invite your unit leadership to come and learn about the ADVENTURE of Popcorn and how it can help your unit and youth defray costs.

Units across WLACC and the Nation fund their entire year of program (outings, summer camp, activities, advancements, etc.) through one annual popcorn fundraiser. This allows families, Scouts, and units to focus on program experiences the remainder of the calendar year and removes financial barriers for families looking to participate.
