Local Scout Troy Perry has won the $2500 grand prize in Scouts Canada's Fill it Up to Win
Contest. As a member of the 1st Verona Scout Troop, Troy took part in
Scouts Canada annual popcorn sale last fall. Troy was able to fill
every line on his order form, earning him an entry in the Fill it Up to Win
contest, which was open to Scouts Canada members across the country.
One prize a day was awarded throughout the month of February, with Troy
being one of two Grand Prize Winners nationwide. Troy had a choice of
four different prizes and opted for the Dell Inspiron Laptop and
accessories package. He was presented with his prize at his troop
meeting on March 20. Last year, Scouts in the Greater Kingston Area
raised over $20,000 through Scouts Canada's annual popcorn sale.
