Cubscout Fundraiser!

[Handi]

Hello everyone,

 

Long time no chat lol. Been awhile since I've posted. Been in and out from time to time thou checkin in. Been gettin the house in order and playin around with my Lathe a little to get the hang of that.

 

Anyway, the reason for this post is a NON Woodworking, Scrollsawing Post.

 

My Son is in his 4th Year (webelo) for cub scouts and this year they've decided to do some of their fundraiser online, so before I get to that, let me explain a little about the fundraiser incause some of you may not have children or grandchildren in the scouts.

 

At least here, Scouts has only ONE Fundraiser. And this is Popcorn. Several different verietys of popcorn. And this is what they sale to get patches, building rentals for special ocassions and dinners, uniforms and many other things. It also helps with low income people that wish to get their child into scouts so they only have to pay a min amount.

 

Anyway, this year, my Son is going to be runnin around town locally with my or mom's assistance to take some orders, and it's basically my Job as a Computer Nut or Guru whatever ya wanna call it to deal with the Online Community, so I've posted all over on my blog's a few woodworking forums and this is my last stop.

 

I hope y'all don't mind the intrusion of promoting my Sons popcorn sales, but the local scouts could really use the money for these things.

 

Anyway if you click here http://www.trails-end.com/estore/scouts/email_referral.jsp?id=8665846 you can goto my Sons popcorn site and check out what kind of popcorn the scouts offer and maybe purchase some, and send the link to your friends and family as well to help support the Scouts and their good Deeds!

that's about the nicest thing to do is promote cub scouts.These little guys are all eyes and ears to learn all about companionship, crafts,dedication,etc.I'd love more than anything to help but 80% of the unemployed are males and i'm one of them.Your heart is in the right direction steering the kids like you are.I thoroughly enjoyed the cub scouts way back when.I'll never forget the elephant i carved out of ivory soap at the meeting one day .Scouts are a worth while investment .Great work handi!

Thanks for helping the scouts out . I was a scout leader from tiger's to boyscouts and even commisioner for a couple years . Scouts go way back in this family to the second group that Lord Baden Powell founded ( great grandfather was in it ) . Have his scout handbook . That is when scouts rough it

 

Good luck in your sales

Huntter, Awesome. I've got my boy in it right now, I'm in a Chair, so I never had the opportunity to join or do things in Scouts, but my boy is in it and he loves it.

 

Next weekend here in Indiana, we have this Event Every Year called "Civil War Days" Where they Re-enact the Civil War. And he will be camping at the Civil War Camp to earn some of his Camping Patches I do beieve, He'll learn how to gather wood, start fires without matchs and cook some food.

 

It's the reason why I was promoting his popcorn sales, it helps them get their patchs, badges, events like this and whatever else is needed. And being low income, it also helps with recruiting new scouts for people that are low income that needs help with assistance for getting uniforms and all.

Amazingkevin, I was never in the Scouts. My Boy carved a car out of soap last year when he was a Bear Scout. I Provided all of the Kids with a Scrollsawed Wooden knife for a Donation to the Scouts to help with Knife Safty. The design was based on Steve Goods Design from The Scrollsaw Workshop Blog.

 

And they loved it. They had a Grand time using them and learning Safty.
