Mulch
Parents and Scouts: [Venture Crew and Webelos Leaders Too!]
BE READY – PUT ON YOUR MULCH GRRRRR FACE! IT IS CLOSE TO OUR MULCH FUNDRAISER DAY AND WE ARE NEEDING EVERYBODY FOR THIS EVENT!
We sold a new record – over 4100 bags of mulch that will be delivered and about half of that spread on 4/12 and 4/13. Plan to spend as much time as you can with us during this event.
We will have lunch on the Saturday and would like all to bring a side or dessert to share. we will cook hot dogs and hamburgers. [thanks to Jeff Colborn and crew for organizing this part of the day!]
We will also need some pick-up trucks – about 10; and drivers. If you can assist in this manner please send me a note so I can get that all organized.
This event is also open for Venture Crew members [and parents] and our Webelos 2 scouts [and parents] to assist and also earn funds for their scout accounts. So pass this on to your crew and den members.
The way we earn money is this; all profits are divided by the total youth hours to get a dollar per hour figure that will be earned by all youth based on the number of hours that they work. I will have a sign up sheet for all next week at our meeting. please make sure you get on the list and if your out next week then also let me know of your plans to help.
Again – this is a HUGE opportunity for you to earn money toward your scout accounts. If you have any questions let me know.
Below is also the newsletter and permission slip for this months camp out.
