Unit Leaders: your Scouts can fund their next adventure faster than you think.

Our Council partners with Trail’s End to help Units raise the funds they need with less stress, fewer moving parts, and a system built for Scout success.

With Trail’s End, Units get:
• High-traffic Storefronts capable of $300+/hour
• Simple digital payments through the Trail’s End App
• Tools to manage sales, Scouts, and progress in one place
• Training and support throughout the sale

Scouts show up, make the ask, build confidence, and work toward their goal.

You spend less time coordinating the fundraiser and more time leading the program.

Ready to make fundraising easier this year? Log in to Trail’s End and start planning your Unit’s sale.

Sign up for one of the four in-person Popcorn Kick Offs starting next week!
