FAQs

What other costs can I expect?

Some special programs and outings or Council events which are open to scouts but we are not attending as a pack may have additional costs. There will also be additional costs for each adult and/or sibling attending events.

Is there a way to offset the costs?

Yes, through our Popcorn Fundraiser.
