Our Mission: Help Fund Your AdventuresDid you know that you can pay for all your yearly Scouting activities by using the programs in this guide? It’s true! Selling $600 - $750 worth of products can help Scouts pay for most unit annual programs and summer camp. In fact, some Scouts sell enough popcorn to help pay for college through the Trail’s End Scholarship Program. Work with your unit leader to determine your selling goal.

Trail’s End has been supporting Scouts like you for over 35 years. We were the first national fundraising partner with the Boy Scouts of America. We have helped Scouts and their units raise more than $4 billion to support their adventures.

Welcome to the Trail’s End Scout Adventure Guide!

Supporting Our TroopsCreated 10 years ago by a Scouting leader who was interested in giving back to the military, the Military Donation is a great way to show our troops you care. Your customers can support both you and our military by purchasing a military donation. To date, more than $45 million in popcorn has been donated to US Troops and veteran organizations.

Supporting ScoutsCollege could be a step in your Scout’s journey. Did you know Scouts that sell $2,500 or more can receive 6% of their sales in a Trail’s End Scholarship fund? After they reach $2,500 worth

of sales in a year, Trail’s End invests 6% of their sale into their scholarship fund each

year afterward. Last year, Trail’s End supported almost 400 college-bound Scouts, totaling over $300,000 in scholarships.
