Key Steps & Dates

Step – 1 Unit Commitments & Unit Kernel Contact Info Updates

• Spring of 2023 - An email will be sent to all 2022 Unit Popcorn Kernels to update contact info and commit to the 2023 Popcorn Campaign. If no longer the Kernel, forward info to the Committee Chair of the Unit.  This is a critical step in the process – knowing who will handle the unit popcorn management. Please recognize, if you have established an account the previous year, all the info will pull through to the current year. 
   
• If no email was received to update unit commitment and info, email Teresa at teresa.smith@scouting.org with your name, unit #, District & best number to reach you.  A direct link will be sent.
   
• The kernel establishes the Unit Account, updates contact info, and adds all the scouts with emails. Setting up Scout accounts and sending them an email to log in and create an account is critical for the APP sales and online sales. 

**SPECIAL NOTE: Unit Kernels no longer have to have different emails if they are Pack & Troop (for example) leaders.  When accessing the CampMasters site, just scroll down on the Dashboard page to see the different unit Dashboards.  Leader & Scout can ALSO share the same email address.  The Leader can toggle back & forth between accounts by accessing the dashboard.  On the top left corner, a linked account will be shown with the Leader or Scout's name on it.
