Monthly Dues: “A Scout is Thrifty…”
Please keep
up to date on your monthly dues. We
collect $10.00 each month for troop operation. This can be paid or taken from your son’s
Scout Account. Scout Accounts are
funded by participation in fundraising activities.
The Scout Account can be used to pay for Summer Camp
fees, Monthly camp-out fees, Troop Dues, and Troop related expenses that are
approved by the Scoutmaster. Please note that the purchase of Personal Gear
is not an approved expense that your scout account will cover.
Please
check with Jim Baughman on status of your son's Scout Account.

Doctor’s office]. This is important information that we have and are able to take
on our outdoor outings in case of an emergency.
Please help us by getting this information into the Troop. As any
medications changes please update Part A of your son’s form. See the website
for a link to the latest revision of this form.
