Dear Scouts and Parents,
 
Please note the following three events that are coming up or are in progress.
 
 
Scout Breakfast - Saturday 2 February
 
We are currently selling tickets to our 3rd Annual Pancake Breakfast open to all.  All Scouts should have received at least five (5) tickets to sell.  This is a very necessary fundraiser to aid to our Scout funds and to continue our activities.  Tickets were distributed by Ms. Haughton and Ms. Pearsall our Troop Treasurers.  All monies should be turned in to them. Tickets are $10.00 each with children under 10 eating free with a paying adult.  Please turn in your money so that we can have an accurate account.  We have a limited 250 tickets and we would like to sell them all.  Do not wait to last minute and if you cannot sell your tickets please turned them back in so that we may try to sell them.  Deadline for ticket sell turn in is Saturday 26 January.
 
Gifts of the Magi Service Project
 
Our current service project is collecting men clothing and toiletries for the residents of St. John's Hospice a homeless shelter for men located at 12th and Race Streets.  On top of the priority list is new underwear of all sizes and belts for the pants.  Toiletry items like tooth brush, soap, deodorant and other personal hygiene items are always welcomed.  Clothes should be cleaned and serviceable and ready to wear without repairs needed.  We will collect them items until the end of January.  There are two boxes for collection.  One is near the Undercroft or primary entry and the other is on the upper level near the Great Hall.
 
Mardi Gras 2013
 
The Men's Fellowship of St. Thomas is the sponsoring organization of the Scout Program.  Last year they donated in excess of $1,000.00 to the Scouting program and they collect additional money to the annual dues to donate to the Scout program.  On Saturday 8 February they are holding a fundraiser Mardi Gras party where a portion of the proceeds will come to the Scout Program and thereby directly benefited your Scout.  I will have tickets for sale this Saturday and will ask that some parents consider attending as representatives of the Scout Program.  Tickets are $35.00 per adult. 
 
 

Yours in Scouting,
