Last Push

I've always believed that "good people will never let you down." I've also taken notice that 10% of the masses complete 90% of the work. With that said I wanted to say a few words leading up to the last few weeks of the sale. Sometimes when the fire starts to die down, we lay back in our chairs and begin to slumber off. This picture is of a campfire we had a few weeks back on the New River during a canoe trip. Instead of letting the fire die down, I added more wood - now I was fortunate to have an ample supply of wood, kinda' like having enough adult leaders around to get things done. So kernels, reach down and grab another piece of wood, give the fire a stoke, and push for a few more sales.
A couple of suggestions:
Bring 3-4 small gifts to next weeks meeting and by a show of hands, pass out prizes for...
Most military donations
Most large popcorn tins sold
Funniest sales story
Most doors knocked in a day

Remember, the fuel is laying on the ground, the boys are beginning to lay back in their chairs.......grab a handful, and throw it on. Have fun, sell popcorn, and make money!
