SCOUT ACCOUNTS

Each Scout has an individual account maintained in the ledger by the Pack Treasurer. Any amount earned over the required amount to cover dues may be used for other Scout purchases (uniforms, Scout office purchases, activity fees, campouts, etc.) and follows each Scout through their Scouting career. If your Scout has a positive balance when they bridge over to a Troop, the Pack Treasurer will issue a check for the remaining balance to the Troop Treasurer once your registration has been transferred.

 

NOTE: Due to federal tax rules for non-profit organizations, any funds earned through fundraising for Scouting cannot be refunded. Funds that cannot be used for Scout purchases, refunded, or rolled over into a Scout’s Troop account will become part of the Pack’s general operating fund when membership ends.

 

Scout accounts will be maintained on the Pack ledger for each Scout regardless of current membership status. On June 1st following a Scout’s completion of the fifth grade, any unused funds must be transferred to the Scout’s Troop account or they will become part of the Pack’s general fund.
