2020 SPRING NUTS FOR SCOUTING SALE
Purpose
To give local units a spring fundraiser to help scouts earn their way to summer camp. The local unit uses most of the commission to benefit the Scout. A benefit of the Nuts for Scouting sales is that there is no money up front and NO RISK to the local unit. The Nuts of Scouting sale is a very important part of the Council Trail Blazer Award. This sale will help your unit and Council become fiscally sustainable.
Cost
The unit only orders what it needs; individual container orders only, no full case orders. The unit should collect the money upfront and then pay for their order at the time the order is due.
Type of Sale
Take order only. Scouts take orders on their sheet and turn it in to the unit Nut Master. The Council provides the order forms. The order forms will be available at the Leader Forum scheduled for your District Kick-off the week of February 10th, 2020 or at the Council Service Center. Scouts collect the money up front and submit the money with their order.
