Yearly Membership Dues are $70 per scout with the remaining cost to be made up through our yearly fundraisers such as Popcorn sales.
We know that in these economic times family budgets can be tight. For those that need to spread out the dues payment over a few months that can be arranged.
We also may be able to offer a scholarship to cover some or all of the dues for families who need this assistance. Please contact the Treasurer for a private and discrete
conversation regarding this.
We have expanded our payment options to include PayPal and Square.com which allows us to accept credit card payments.
