Fund-raiser:
The troop has an annual Christmas Wreath Sale. Scouts are required to sell a
minimum of $400.00 to cover Troop operating expenses. Sales more than the minimum
is credited to the scouts' account for them to draw against to pay for outings and other
scouting related expenses. It is very easy to generate the minimum sales.
