Troop favoriteDusty, loud, gone in ten minutes. The bag that funds a week of camp.
2026 Popcorn Season · Vero Beach, Florida
The popcorn is extra. Supporting the program is the point.
Pick a Scout. We send you to their Trail's End store. Cart and checkout live there — this site is the porch, not the register. In-person tables are listed in the header as they're scheduled.
1. Pick a Scout
Know someone? Lock their storefront. Otherwise we rotate so every Scout gets a turn.
2. We send you over
A short notice, then Trail's End opens. We do not take a card number here.
3. Checkout there
Build the bag and pay on that Scout's Trail's End store. Credit stays with them.

The three bags that start arguments at the table.
Where it goes
Seventy percent stays in Scouting. The rest pays for the corn.
Gulf Stream Council sets Troop 532's exact cut. Unit plus council is the 70% Trail's End prints on the bag.
~33%
Troop 532
About $7 of a $20 bag — camp, operations, the trailer. Online is often a flat 35%; storefronts 30–40% with volume. A Heroes donation pays this same cut: the Scout gets credit, the corn goes to a hero or a pantry.
~37%
Gulf Stream Council
About $7 of a $20 bag — camps, staff, unit service, and shipping. Scouting America national does not take a separate slice; council funds support the broader program.
~30%
Trail's End
About $6 of a $20 bag — the popcorn, packaging, the online store, and prizes.
A bag is twenty dollars because camp is expensive. We'd rather you buy caramel corn than write a second check.
Heroes & Helpers
Where a Heroes donation goes.
From $5 on Trail's End. They ship the product. You do not get a box.
Military
Snacks ship to bases for service members and their families.
First responders
Police, fire, and EMS stations get the care package instead of your pantry.
Food banks
Community shelves get filled when you'd rather skip another tin.
