In the Spotlight:
Number of Members:
20
When did
your group begin with us?
Several Years
Amount
raised with annual Wreath Fundraiser:
Over $5,000
How
do you use the proceeds?
The boys use the money earned
from the profits to pay for
their annual camping trip. The
scouts have a chance to earn
merit badges at summer camp.
How
do you motivate your members for the Wreath Fundraiser?
We make sure that we tell them
that each wreath that THEY sell
themselves goes directly to them
to pay for summer camp. We
recognize the scouts that in the
past have gone to summer camp
for free due to their wreath
sales. Also, any extra money
raised as a group goes to help
pay for new equipment, flags
etc. for the troop.
Do you hold an Awards Ceremony for your Group?
Yes, We do this each
year.
How
do you promote the fundraiser?
We use the posters
provided by Mickman at church
and we also put a notice in the
church bulletin.
Please share any other 'Secrets of Success' or additional domments:
Some troop
members have gone to the local
shopping mall landlord and they
bought wreaths for the store
doors.
