A great night at Lincoln Elementary School in Macomb! ⚜️

We're set up at Parent-Teacher Conferences tonight, meeting with families and sharing all the exciting opportunities waiting for their children in Cub Scouts!

From camping and fishing to Pinewood Derby races, outdoor adventures, and making new friends, Cub Scouting is a great way for kids to have fun, learn new skills, and build confidence.

A big thank-you to Lincoln Elementary School for welcoming us and giving us the opportunity to connect with local families!

Adventure is calling, Macomb! Come join the fun!

🍿🚀 The Popcorn Generals Hit the Road to Galesburg, IL! 🚀🍿

Tonight, the Popcorn Generals packed up a tray of cookies and took a trip to visit Pack 316 in Galesburg, IL, where we had the honor of meeting Lukas G. and his Cubmaster/Dad, Drew! 💙🍪💛

Let us tell you, this is one MOTIVATED little dude! Lukas has already sold over $16,000! He is also the top seller per week 4,5,6 & 7! 💪🍿

Lukas is a Bear Scout with a BIG goal! 🎯 He’s determined to sell enough popcorn to purchase himself a go-kart! 🏎️ And when Lukas has a goal, he’s ready to put in the work!

Lukas tells his parents, “Time to sell popcorn!” and off they go! He’s even mastered the art of catching customers on their way IN and OUT of the stores! Now THAT is dedication and salesmanship! 👏🔥

But this story is about more than just one Scout and his go-kart dream!

Drew is determined to see Pack 316 succeed and raise funds that will help bring Scouting opportunities to the entire community. ❤️ He’s already looking into purchasing items for his Cubs, including fishing poles, to give them more opportunities to learn, explore, and make memories together! 🎣🏕️

This is what Scouting is all about! Scouts setting goals, learning the value of hard work, and families and leaders working together to make amazing things happen. 💙💛

Lukas is chasing his go-kart dream, and Drew is working toward a bigger vision for his Pack and community. We can’t wait to see what they accomplish!

Help us cheer on Lukas and Pack 316! 🍿🏎️ Every bag sold brings them one step closer to their goals!

In the Scouting community, we honor, and share the passing of a long-time scout leader in the same tradition of Lord Baden-Powell by using the trail symbol for “Gone Home”. This is a simple circle with a dot in the middle and was used as a trail sign in the early 1900’s to show other hikers that you had reached the end of the trail. Scouting uses this same symbol to show respect to our fellow Scouters who have passed away. Baden-Powell’s tombstone uses this symbol.

We are saddened to announce the passing of James Winkel. Long time scouter and friend to many. Jim was a 25 year scout leader earning the Silver Beaver and St George Religious Award. Here is the link to his services https://papefh.com/james-e-jimmy-winkel-83/.

Today, we lower our flags and honor a life dedicated to service. While our fellow Scouter has now Gone Home, the lessons they taught, the friendships they built, and the lives they changed will forever remain part of the Scouting trail. Rest in peace, and thank you for leaving this world better than you found it.

🍿 THE GENERALS SNUCK IN AT THE CHANGING OF THE POPCORN GUARDS! 🍿

Brothers Nathan and Jake D. from Pack 54 were making sales at Lowe's in Davenport! With a friendly brotherly competition underway, they've already reached $1,500 and $1,800!🚨🥳

Then Isaac F. took over and was excited to continue the sales! With his script polished and ready, he was prepared to seize the shift!👏🏻👑

Pack 54 set a goal of $35,000, but the Cub Scouts were determined to go even turther-and they've now reached an incredible $42,000!
That's amazing!🤩

Way to go, Pack 54!
