Reminder the Wreath sale is ongoing too! The amazing patch set is here and waiting for your scouts to earn it! For the keen eyed, our item from Clark's Greenhouse was incorrect, it's the hanging basket they've been selling us for years. Our apologies! https://www.glaciersedge.org/support/winter/

This is a quick reminder that the Popcorn Kickoffs have moved! We know there's some overlap with District Membership Kickoffs and I encourage you to attend those, especially if you're a popcorn veteran. But, if you're able to divide and conquer in your pack or troop, then I encourage you to join us at one of two popcorn kickoffs NEXT WEEK!

August 5th, from 6:30-8, we will be at the Waunakee American Legion Post
August 6th, from 6:30-8, we will be at Saint John Vianney, Marion Hall, Janesville, WI
For both of these kickoffs, we will be recording the kickoffs and send out the information afterwords.

From your Friendly Neighborhood Popcorn Kernel:

Hey Unit Leader,

Friendly reminder that Units who commit to the Trail's End Popcorn Fundraiser by June 1 with a goal will receive that additional +1% commission back to their sales.

Many Units across our Council and our country choose Trail’s End to fund all their Scouting adventures, because it works. Register Your Unit for this year's Popcorn Fundraiser and let Trail’s End Work for You: https://0734eff3-d77c-462f-8b92-9e70ba8966b0.us07.ldpgs.com/nsu_2026

Trail's End is streamlined and proven to help your Unit reach its goals quicker and easier, offering:

· High-traffic Storefronts — thousands of Scouts averaged $300+/hour in 2025
· Mobile-optimized Trail’s End Leader Portal and Scout App to manage the entire sale
· Tap-to-pay can provide a cashless experience with credit card fees paid by Trail’s End
· Real-time sales, Rewards, and encouragement motivate your Scouts while selling at Storefronts

I'm here to help your unit achieve their fundraising goals. I'm excited to be working with Trail's End this year to deliver an excellent fundraising platform. If you have any questions, please let me know. You can reach me at [email protected].

YIS,
