Fund Raising Policy

 
Troop 925 will raise funds to cover the purchase of equipment and for expenses related to troop functions.  Each Scout if responsible for a portion of these expenses.  There will be two major fund raisers per year with the proceeds going to the Troop.  Each Scout benefits from the experience of helping the troop earn the money to cover our expenses and to help the Troop grow.  These events will have required attendance.  If a Scout is unwilling to participate in the fund raising activities then the parents will be responsible for covering his portion of equipment and/or Troop expenses.  Unwillingness to participate does not show any Scouting Spirit in the Troop and Patrol endeavors.
 
Other fund raising events will be held for the Scouts to earn money to pay for their expenses not included in the annual dues.  Four to six events will be held each year.  These proceeds can be used for the cost of the monthly camp outs, Camporee, super trips, uniforms, dues or any other scouting activity.  During the fund raising projects, the Scouts will earn credit for their participation.  The allocation of proceeds will depend on the event less any expenses.  Net proceeds will be split among the participants and placed in their Scout account held by the Troop treasurer.  It will be the boys' option to use his funds for the activity he chooses.  A Scout Account Transaction Form must be completed and submitted by the Treasurer prior to usage.
