Fall Popcorn Sale Approaching!


The 2022 Popcorn Sale will be here before you know it! Unit Kernels and Unit Leaders should sign up for a local Key Leader Briefing if they have not already! This helps you know what is going on this year with changes in vendors and dates, as well as help your unit earn an additional 2% commission!


Also, families and unit leaders can join the NLC Popcorn Kernel Korner Facebook Group for another way to see more details and learn from other units selling popcorn locally!


Go to the Popcorn Page on the council website for more information and updates!
