Sat, 01/28/2012
The Camp Fire USA Central Puget Sound Council (CFCPSC) has launched its annual Candy Sale on which runs through February 20.
Five flavor offerings are available for $5 each, including: the popular Creamy Smooth Mint Patties, made by Brown & Haley and exclusive to Camp Fire; Almond Roca; Almond Caramel Cluster; P-Nuttles, and Camper Mix. Camper Mix was introduced last year as a sugar-free alternative. Camper Mix is a blend of cashews, almonds, peanuts, sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, and a variety of sesame sticks.
By purchasing Camp Fire candy, not only are you helping youth build important skills like goal setting, public speaking, money management, and business ethics, but you are helping families cover the cost of Camp Fire activities and camps.
Camp Fire boys and girls will be selling candy at grocery stores and other local businesses for the duration of the three-week Candy Sale. On Saturday, January 28, a Camp Fire middle school group from Westside School will be selling at the QFC in Westwood Village from 2 p.m. to 8 p.m. Alternatively, you can securely purchase candy on the CFCPSC website at http://www.campfire-usa.org/secure/candyorder
In addition, CFCPSC together with Operation Homefront will be distributing candy to the families of deployed parents/guardians for the fourth year in a row. Donations may be made in person or online.
