Information & Tools for Unit Leaders
Some of the items below are spreadsheets that will work with Microsoft Excel or the free Google Sheets programs. You will need to download the files and save them on your computer. Then you can edit and print. If you don’t download them, they will be a “read only” file.
- Popcorn Sales Guide (for Unit Kernels)
- Storefront Reservation Guide
- Scout Sales Brochure (the complete brochure)
- Scout Sales Guide
- Initial Order Worksheet – (Coming Soon!) to help Unit Popcorn Kernels determine how many cases of each product to order.
- Converter Tool (Coming Soon!) (cases to containers) – since you will need to enter “container” quantities in the Camp Masters system for the initial order, this tool will help you with case to containers quantity conversions
- Unit Master Record
- Program Planning & Budgeting tools
Reminders:
- When placing initial orders – they must be full case quantities (you will be able to order partial case quantities in for the final order)

- Trails End general information – this link will take you to Trails End main website. They have tools and ideas for: Scouts, Scout Families and Scout Leaders
Distribution Locations
TBA – Please check with your District Popcorn Kernel to schedule a pick up time.
Units Signed up for the 2022 Sale
Use the search box to check on the status of a unit. If it is not listed, the unit has not been signed up yet.
If “Not identified yet” is listed under the Unit Popcorn Kernel column:
- That means that one of the unit leaders signed the unit up for the sale, but that person is not the Unit Popcorn Kernel
- The actual Unit Popcorn Kernel has not been submitted yet (we need this before we can set up the account in the Trails End popcorn system)
Coming Soon!
