Scout Show Tickets Help Pay For Jamboree

Don't forget Scout Show tickets as a great way to pay for Jamboree.

Sell 480 tickets and the trip is yours!

The tickets are $10 each. They offer discounts to restaurants, services and the Texas Rangers games for a year! The Scouts get the tickets in-hand so people pay the Scout and they automatically get a ticket. Sell one ticket for $10 and the troop gets $5.

There are two qualifiers!

1. Turn in Money to Council on time.
2. The unit must have a booth at Scout Show

If a troop does not turn in Money on time, the commissions to the troop go down. If the troop does not have a booth at Scout Show the commissions go down. If the money and/or remaining tickets are not turned in by May 31st there are no commissions.

I know Troop 42 takes a percentage from every fundraiser to pay for regular expenses that would otherwise be seen in increased dues or out-of-pocket. Check with your troop on how they handle fundraisers.
