Thank you to all the popcorn kernels! Your many hours of service have been greatly appreciated. In order to receive the Amazon gift cards for popcorn sales of $350 or more, you must enter the Scout's sales in the Trail's End app. The gift cards are ordered through the app. (Note: The Scout will be emailed an Amazon Card code 7 days after the rewards are submitted.)

Wawa Show and Sells (10:00am to 2:00pm)
October 12 and 13, 2019
Always check with your local Wawa store manager to confirm the time you can sell and where he/she would like you to set up. Each unit will receive a GSCBSA Wawa confirmation letter and a certificate of insurance that they must take with them to their assigned Wawa location(s). Each District Executive will work with their units to assign Wawa locations. Wawa does not consult us on their construction plans so please verify that the location you are assigned is not under construction. Also, if you are assigned a Wawa, you must attend and we expect you to be at the assigned location until 2:00pm.
