POPCORNThank you to all Foothills District Scouts and Scouters who sold popcorn in 2011!
We experienced a 17% increase in our sales over last year! That is amazing!
What's next in popcorn?
Clemson/Carolina Day is currently set for February 25. Be on the look out for invitations in January.
$1,000 t-shirts should be ready by February 25
Details on Hockey Tickets coming soon
Want to continue earning money for your Unit? Sell popcorn online. Every time we get a commission deposited to us from Trail's End, we will look to see who has been selling online and will mail you a check for your part of the commission
Family Friend's of Scouting
This year, Foothills District is committed to raising
funds to support the Scouts. To do this,
we need your help. Because we know all
our Scouts and their parents believe in the job we are doing, we will give them
the opportunity to help us financially.
Our district will have a family campaign to help us raise the necessary
funds. All we ask is that you give us
five to ten minutes at your Blue and Gold banquet, Pack meeting or Court of
Honor to present our story. This helps
us raise our money to support local Scouting effort.
If you would like to work on our Friend's of Scouting Committee, please contact Nathaniel Harris
Recharters
Recharters were due at the December Round Table. If you have not turned yours in, please do so as soon as you can. If you have any questions, please contact Nathaniel Harris.

Baptist Church on the 2nd Thursday of the month at 7:00 for Round
Table.
Round Table is a meeting where you hear about upcoming District and Council events, learn new things about Scouting, meet with old friends, and make new friends who all have a common goal of providing a great Scouting program to the boys in Foothills District.
