Re-Chartering
The Boy Scouts have decided to increase their re-chartering fee by nearly double for next year! There are a lot of factors that went into it but all we really need to know or worry about is that to continue in scouts, we have to pay double. That said, we will be having our first mandatory fund raiser in years. The RADA knife sale.
RADA Knife Sale details:
When: Now until December 9th. Catalogs are in and you can get yours at the next meeting or contact me and I will see to it that you get one.
Requirement: We are asking each family to sell $100.00 worth.
Delivery:TBA shortly but it will be before christmas
Money Due:
Online Orders: Details will be available shortly so your boy gets credit for his online sales to out of town relatives or friends.
FAQ: Q. If I sell more than the minimum does it go into my personal account?
A. No, this money will go into a fund specifically to keep re-chartering fees down now and i into the future.
Q. How much does the troop make on this sale?
A. We will make around 40 percent, so if everyone sells $100.00 we won't raise re-charter f fees.
Q. Is there a buy out option?
A. Yes! It is $100 dollars. It doesn't hurt to have the boys get out and be seen in public and talk to their neighbors. Yes, I realize that the boys selling are only making $40 for the troop. Yes, the buyout is still $100.
Q. So if my boy sells $75, then what?
A. Simple math.... he sold $75, 100-75=25.....so you turn in the orders plus $25.
