These are two different Chief Logan camps. The Ohio one is close to being sold though. -
It does seem that bad, but the $16 per Scout seems bad. I guess it depends if your council has a council fee or not. -
As part of the bankruptcy, they had to lay out a plan to solvency. One of the items planned was higher dues each year. I thought it was a $3 increase last year (72 to 75). That was probably less the a COL increase.

Isn't it about time to freeze the fees for a year and give us a break? How many consecutive years have we seen an increase? The increases FAR outweigh the cost of living. -

This was a fun little exercise. Our local Scout Exec's salary and benefits total ~$140,000. Our council serve's ~9,000 youth (down from ~18,000 in 2019). This works out to roughly $16 per scout. We live in a low-to-moderate cost of living area where a mid-career college grad or skilled tradesman probably earns ~$80,000 per year (figure closer to $100,000 with benefits) Honestly, $140,000 for a Scout Exec doesn't seem THAT bad by comparison.
