Troop Fall Fundraiser: Everyone Participates!

We need 100% participation in our Fall Fundraiser from all Scout families - if you participate in the Troop you are expected to support this fundraiser...

To Sign Up contact Ms Potter to select your Plan (A/B/C) and for Ticket Sales Slots If you are selling tickets

Our goal & expectation is 100% participation in our Fall Fundraiser from all Scout families - we do not collect any annual membership fees for the Troop - all annual Scout registration fees go directly to the BSA.

To operate the troop we must raise funds from every family to pay for neckerchiefs, merit badges & cards, rank badges & cards, parent pins, the troop website & email servers, postage, Fast Start campout costs, training equipment and pre-payment fees associated with Camp Geronimo, Camp Emerald Bay & Philmont trips.

The fall fundraiser as usual includes Scout-O-Rama ticket sales as well as some alternate options.

We strongly support Scout-O-Rama ticket sales via our enthusiastic coordinators. We start our planning for this in May to be better prepared and have done the following:

- Start communications early

- Secure premium ticket sales locations for Fri/Sat/Sun on both sales weekends

- Avoid other major Troop activity conflicts on these weekends

We would like every Scout to participate in fundraising - we encourage everyone (including parents) to sign up for at least one 2 hour sales slot and also to sell tickets to your own families, friends & contacts - this can be a good recruiting tool for Scouting too. We would like all Scouts to target selling at least 1 full book of (20) tickets. The tickets are $5 each.

The Troop 100% supports ticket sales fundraising. Some recent years we have raised less than we spent...
We do not want to do that again.... Enough Said!

As part of our fall fundraiser we do anticipate that some will be unable to participate in ticket sales for various reasons or may not be able to sell a whole book of tickets.

This year  we again present guidelines for families to make an optional donation as an alternate or supplement to Scout ticket sales. As in previous years families can also chose to just purchase some/all remaining tickets themselves.

Scout-O-Rama ticket sales slots are now open for registration - call early!

Contact Ms. Potter to sign up - or register with her at a Troop meeting

The actual Scout-O-Rama event will be held in early November nearby at Kiwanis park, Tempe.
