Award. The main event planned is the “Big Summer Trip or
Activity,” this can be a campout or something big like a Space
Derby, Boat Regatta, etc. The five other events can be anything
from group tours at a museum, a day at a park or zoo, or even
working to complete a specific challenge (read 10 grade level
books) in order to receive a certain badge. The group passes on

events as well. This committee typically meets once in Feb/March

Ways
and Means Committee: Unfortunately
money doesn't grow on trees. The Pack relies heavily on
fundraisers and donations to help provide funds the we need to go
camping, provide awards to Scouts, have the Pinewood Derby and
train our leaders (among many other things). The primary function
of this group is to plan and implement ways to bring money to the
Pack through fundraisers with a specific focus on our annual
popcorn sale in the fall. The chair (or another member) of this
committee will serve as Popcorn Kernel. This committee typically
meets 1-2 times annually for planning purposes. The popcorn sale
requires a time commitment of 2-4 hours (per weekend) during the
month of October as well as assistance with product and prize
distribution. Serving on this committee can be an all year
commitment (if other fundraisers are done) but is usually a five
month commitment (Aug-Dec) for the popcorn sale.
