Paying Your Invoice

Helping Other Units

How can you help other units as we wrap up the sale? Helping them with unit transfers! Is there a unit near by that has extra popcorn? Do you need to place an order for your last few items? You can swap with them! See the Kernel Guide on instructions for how to transfer products!

Popcorn Ball

Thank you to everyone for your patience as we have navigated some unexpected scheduling changes. We will not be having our popcorn ball with Creighton this year but instead we will be hosting TWO options! One with the Sioux City Musketeers and another with the Omaha Lancers.

Musketeers Game: Saturday, December 10th at 6:05PM

Omaha Game: Saturday, December 17th at 6:05PM

These events are for all Scouts who sold over $1250. There is an "unable to attend" option if these do not work for you. Please make sure to register so that we can make sure your Scouts receive their recognition items.

How Do I Wrap Up My Unit's Sale?

• Do everything mentioned above
• Use leftover popcorn from your previous orders to fill take orders if possible.
• Make sure to place any and all Helpers and Heroes donations. If you do not, this can mess up your invoice and prize orders for Scouts.
• If not already done, be sure to turn in any and all cash to the treasurer to deposit into the Unit's Bank Account. This may need to be done before you pay council
• Submit Scout Rewards after balance to council is cleared. *Scouts will claim them from their own accounts; available to claim 5 days after submittal
