Popcorn Fundraiser Update
A big shoutout to the scouts yesterday who helped kick off our fundraiser! It was an amazing day yesterday – the community responded in a very big way to our scouts as they promoted scouting. There are still shifts this coming weekend that need to be filled by scouts and adults http://www.signupgenius.com/go/30E0A4AABAB2CA7FF2-popcorn1. (Note: adults need to have current YPT training. This is a 30 min online class that can be found at my.scouting.org.)
Each scout has a goal of selling $450 of popcorn to hep meet troop funding needs. We are estimated that each hour a scout participates in a Show & Sell will bring him $50 closer to his goal. Please encourage your scout to also visit neighbors, friends and family to reach his goal. If your scout is able to reach or exceed the goal, the troop will waive rechartering costs which is has increased this year.
Adult Leadership Opportunities:
We are a small troop and need your help to deliver a quality program. Please contact Deb Ryan (mjryan4@comcast.net) to see what opportunity would be a good fit for you.
- Assistant Scoutmaster(s): An Assistant Scoutmaster is one of the adult leaders age 18 or over who assist the Scoutmaster in delivering the troop program. It enables you to directly have a positive impact on scouts guiding them in their scouting journey. We understand your schedule might not enable you to be at each troop meeting or outing – it is our goal to build a strong bench of ASMs that are trained and provide the right level of support to the scouts as they lead and learn new skills.
- Troop Committee roles: The Troop Committee conducts the business of the troop, setting policy, supporting the Scoutmaster and scouts with planned activities. In addition, the committee has the responsibility to conduct boards of review with the scouts. We do have specific roles within the committee that are available now or in the near future.
