Troop Dues - How much are they?

The Troop Dues are $20 per Quarter - which works out to $80 per year. This money goes to cover the Troops expenses throughout the year. One of the most important items that money goes to is helping with the cost of some of the Leader Training (both Youth & Adults). We feel that Trained Leaders are worth the expense.

Here are just some of the Troop expenses:
- 1/2 Scholarships for up to 2 Youth to attend NYLT (Youth Leader Training) each year. (The minimum age for this Training is 13-years old.)
- Assistance for Adult Training like Wood Badge, Rock Climbing certifications, & NRA certification courses.
- Paying the Recharter Fees for the Adults that help the Troop 'go'.
- Purchasing all of the Awards & Rank Advancements to be awarded at the Courts of Honor.
- Troop Website costs (like the hosting of the website & registering our Domain name).
- Covering the Propane, paper goods, plastic ware, trash bags, etc. that our Youth need to use in their Kitchens on Outings.
- Maintenance of the Troop Equipment (like the Canoes & Trailer, Bike Trailer, Stoves, Lanterns, Kitchens, etc.)
- Covering the Food & incidentals for the Patrol Leaders' Council Training twice-a-year.
- Paying the cleaning fee for using the Sanctuary for our 2 Courts of Honor each year.

(Along with many, many other expenses that have not been itemized here...)
