Please keep up to date on your monthly dues.  We collect $10.00 each month for troop operation.  This can be paid or taken from your son’s Scout Account.  Scout Accounts are funded by participation in fundraising activities. The Scout account can be used to pay for Summer Camp fees, Monthly camp-out fees, Troop Dues, and Troop related expenses that are approved by the Scoutmaster. Please check with Jim Baughman on status of your son's Scout Account.

5.  Kroger Plus Card.
Also – Please note that you must go to the website and re-register your Kroger Plus Card again for the upcoming year – between now and May 1st. The web address is krogercommunityrewards.com  - Please follow the link to “Columbus Ohio”.  Follow the link to "Enroll" or  Re-Enroll".  Type in your ID and password.  The Group No. for the Troop is 81125, or you can just type in “boy scout troop 136” and search for the number.  Once found, confirm and save re-enrollment.  It sounds more difficult than it is.  If you have any issues give me a call and I will help.  If you have not yet joined this fund-raiser and would like to – see Mr. Baughman for details.  Make sure you register your card number with the troop so we can credit you rewards.
