Please keep up to date

can be paid or taken from your son’s Scout Account. Scout Accounts are funded
by participation in fundraising activities, and also by Kroger Plus purchases.
Use Kroger Plus Card for
your family food purchases. A percent of your spending at Kroger on the Kroger
Plus card will go into the Boy’s Scout Account. The Scout Account can be used
to pay for Summer Camp fees, Monthly camp-out fees, Troop Dues, Uniform expenses,
and Troop related expenses that are approved by the Scoutmaster.
Please check with Jim Baughman on status of your
