Popcorn Sale
2026 Popcorn Fundraiser
Fund your entire year of Scouting!
The annual popcorn sale is one of the easiest ways for Scouts to earn their way to camp, adventures, and unit activities. Every sale helps support both your unit and Scouting in Occoneechee Council.
Returning units: If your unit sold popcorn in 2025, Trail’s End makes it easy to jump back in and sell in the 2026 popcorn season. Sign back into your Trail’s End account using the same username and password as before.)
New units: Units selling popcorn through Occoneechee Council for the first time should create a new account in the Trail’s End sales portal.
New for 2026
Trails End has introduced a new online portal for this year’s sale. All units will use the updated platform to register, manage Scout accounts, place orders, and track sales.
Why Sell Popcorn?
Selling popcorn gives Scouts the opportunity to build confidence, practice communication skills, and learn the value of earning their own way. Units keep a significant portion of every sale, making popcorn one of the most effective fundraising opportunities of the year.
If your unit has never sold popcorn before, 2026 is the perfect time to start. Eligible new units can take advantage of a special Trails End promotion featuring $480 in free popcorn, no upfront investment, and reserved storefronts.
