Our Committee Chairman asked us to think up possible solutions to our
problem and I can think of no better place to get ideas. : ) I've learned so
much in the few months I've been a member of Scouts-L!
Our pack fee covers council fees, Boy's Life and enough for the basic supplies
a new scout needs. Handbook, scarf etc. Additional funding for the pack is
done throughout the year with popcorn, pizza and candy bar sales. The pack
uses 1/2 of the profits for pack activities and supplies needed for awards and
advancements etc. and credits the participating boys with the other 1/2. Thus
giving boys a chance to earn rechartering and summer camp fees. Some parents
are becoming disgruntled because it is the same boys that participate in each
fundraiser and thus are funding the pack for the rest of the boys.
What can we do to make it fair for all the boys?
I would appreciate any input you may have.
