Our next webinar is tonight, Wednesday, August 3, at 6:30 PM. We'll be covering the prize program and bonus incentives. Click here to register

The webinars will also be recorded and posted on  colbsa.org/popcorn , so don't worry if you can't make it live.

A brief registration is required to participate. Click on the links below to register or view. 

The deadline for Order #1 for Show & Sell product is this Friday, August 5. For more information about Order #1, logging-in to the new popcorn system, and more, please read Issue 3 of Kernel Connection.

• Be aware that when you place your unit order, the system may not give you clear confirmation that your order was received. The system may show messages such as, "waiting for scouting.trails-end", "update failed" or "submit failed."  However, we are able to confirm that we receive unit orders when they are submitted, regardless of the message displayed.
• If you have any concerns about if your order was submitted, please feel free to reach out to your district professional or kernel to confirm. Unfortunately the system does not send an auto email confirmation.
• Be aware that the following functions are not operating in the system at this time, though we do expect that they will be available later:
• "Print Unit Invoice" Button
• "View Order Adjustment Details" Button
• The retail dollar value does not display on the ordering screens
• The commission details and unit payment is not setup at this time. This does not impact any ordering capabilities

If you're new to ordering or having trouble deciding quantities, we've put together a product mix guide for your reference. You can view and download it here

To facilitate communication, as well as to provide a resource for units to post when they need additional Show & Sell product or have product to unload, we've created a  Facebook group. It's a closed group, so you'll need to request to join.

• Go to https://www.facebook.com/groups/colpopcorn/
• Log into Facebook (if you're not already)
• Click Join Group
• You'll have access to the group once the page administrator approves your join request.

If so, we're looking for some guest presenters for the "Conducting a Unit Kickoff" webinar on Wednesday, August 17. We'd like you to share your best practices for getting your Scouts and families excited and motivated to participate in the popcorn fundraiser. Please contact us at popcorn@colbsa.org if you're interested in participating. Thanks!
