Fundraising
Fundraising Program
Unfortunately, annual dues alone does not cover all of the costs of supporting troop activities and equipment needs. Because of this, fundraising is a very important activity within the troop.
There are two types of fundraisers... one type expects all scouts to participate as earnings benefit the entire troop:
Hat, Neckerchief, Shoulder Loops, #1, Nametag, and Handbook (for new scouts)
Wingbowl
Troop equipment
Family Picnic
Scout patches, badges and recognition awards
The second type is voluntary, and each participating scout's earnings are added to his troop account to be applied towards summer camp or monthly trips.
Benefits to Your Scout:
Teaches the value & process of setting and working toward goals
Gives a strong sense of accomplishment by being able to help fund their participation in trips and/or camp.
Enhances communication, leadership skills and confidence
Exhibits great Troop Spirit!
Sales Goals to Strive for:
$250.00 per Scout - Boy Scout, Tenderfoot
$300.00 per Scout - Second Class, First Class
$350.00 per Scout - Star, Life
$450.00 per Scout - Eagle
Help Needed!
Each event needs a Chair, and at least one Co-Chair. By doing this, the amount of work any one person takes on should be manageable. Do you have a few hours to share your talents?
