Popcorn and Dues

We will not be collecting dues at the den meetings this year. Instead the boys can pay their dues through popcorn sales. Each boy has a goal to sell $90 in popcorn. If a scout does not meet his goal or does not participate in popcorn sales we are asking that the family pay the difference up to a maximum of $30 per scout.

This money will help offset the cost of badges and awards to be presented to the scout during the year.
