We’re kicking off our spring fundraiser. The fundraiser is an opportunity for scouts to offset the cost of summer camp and/or monthly camping fees. Scouts are not required to participate.

March 7 – May 15 (orders will be sent beginning April 1)

Products include seeds, bulbs and berries (flowers, vegetables and herbs). There are additional items in our online store. Products are guaranteed (from US and Holland).
Prices vary from about $6 –$ 30

Scouts can generate sales two ways

1. Door to Door (with an adult): Scouts collect orders and payment. Parents organize payments and order online to be shipped directly to scout for distribution. Scout pays one $6 shipping fee.
   **Parents be sure to identify the scout when ordering for credit
   ** We will not be collecting paper orders and payments as a troop.
2. Online (preferred method): Customer orders from website http://troop14.fpfundraising.com/.
   Customer pays $6 shipping and order is sent directly to them.

• Customers must identify the scout that they are supporting as they complete order so that you receive credit.
  See “Give credit for this order to” instructions below.
• Orders not credited to a specific scout will be credited to the entire troop.

Questions

1. Scouts: Contact your Senior Patrol Leader, Assistant Senior Patrol Leader, or Patrol Leader

   word! Spread the word to family/friends all over the country.
2. You can be as creative as you would like. Have parents post to Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, etc.
   Make up “business cards” to give to teachers or neighbors with instructions. Send emails to family and
   friends anywhere in the USA. Encourage customers to place orders for their loved ones.
