Fundraising

Fundraising Opportunities

The troop provides fundraising opportunities to the scouts to help pay for their dues and other expenses related to scouting. These include but are not limited to:

• Popcorn Sales - September - November. All net proceeds go the individual scout's account

• Holiday Greens - September - November. All net proceeds go to the individual scout's account. (Needs an adult coordinator)

• Camp Cards/Scout Show Tickets - March - April. Net proceeds go to the individual scout's account.
  In addition to buying entry into the Scout Show, there are a number of additional discounts from a variety of vendors. Selling outside a card sponsors store, like Safeway the day before major holidays, i.e. mothers day, can really drive up sales. Typically there is a $5 off $50 coupon, so if people are spending $50 or more, they immediately recoup the $5 cost of the camp card. Profits are typically ~$2/card

• King Soopers Grocery Gift Card Sales - Ongoing. 5% of all funds recharged to a gift card comes back into the scout's account. Remember to use your cards to buy gas as well as groceries.
  Multiple cards can be tied to a single scout account. Consider setting up both parents, grandparents, and siblings with KS cards
