Cub Pack #59 Holiday Fun-d-Raising Details!

Scout Families,

"Dashing Through the snow, with a Cub Scout selling wreaths, over the hills we go, asking you to bequeath." Pretty catchy eh?

Yes, we are Fun-d-Raising to earn money for FUN! Did you miss the launch of our fundraiser? No worries. Here are the details. Please remember, your family is not REQUIRED to participate in the fundraiser. If you choose not to participate or simply cannot you should budget money to pay for events as they are planned. Either way works but this is more FUN!

Sherwood Forest Farms Evergreen Fundraiser Details:
  • Pack #59 retains 100% of the profits. Period.
  • Orders are due to me no later than November 11th.
  • Items will arrive the first week in December. Our Pack will manage bulk distribution as a TEAM. Plan to deliver the individual items you sell. 
  • Our greatest success thus far is being gained by by approaching larger businesses: wreaths are used to decorate their business location and many employees are buying items for their homes. 
  • Your Cubs individual goal is to sell 20 items. Please use this as a teaching opportunity: Speaking to NEW adults, shaking hands, making eye-contact, manners and math are all part of the package!
  • Cubs must be in uniform while soliciting for two reasons: he will be covered by BSA insurance (which you are funding) and his appearance notifies others of his purpose. :)
  • We will recognize your Cubs efforts BIG and SMALL after all the dust settles and the orders have been delivered.
  • For more information or for brochures/support HOLLER at me. :) 575.937.7673.

·        HAPPY FUN-D-Raising!

Dear Scout Families,

Thank you for showing your Scout spirit and turning out to decorate the chicken wire for our float! We had nearly thirty people attend and four new Cubs join our Pack! The Cubs had a great time stuffing the tissue paper and took special pride in their part of this annual event. Special thanks to the Green Family who functioned as New Member Chairperson(s) for the evening, with no notice!
