Here's how things went yesterday;

SCOUTS
Breakfast   -   $710
Registration  -  $112 ( Maqui Herder & Daronn Lipscomb )
Summer Camp - $50
Swimming   -   $121 ( Cost was $534 )
Ttl                   $993 for deposit

CUB SCOUTS
Breakfast   -   $744 ( Cost was $150 )
Ttl                   $594 for deposit

The total for the day was $1,737 less $150 (cub account) for the Sexton.  As a reminder the scouts paid $180 for the church deposit several months ago.

So given the above looks like the scouts brought in
$340 ( previously reported )
  710 ( day of )
 $1,050

Cub scouts brought in
$600 ( previously reported )
  744 ( day of )
$1,344

There are several people that have outstanding tickets.  It's reflected in the attached, however most sold all or some portion of what was issued and handed in unsold tickets.

A ticket for ticket audit would be tough, but I guess for the next go around the best thing is to minimize door sales by increasing pre-sales.  There were a number of single ticket sales that were credited to the scouts or cubs, but no specific parent, so  they don't show in the total on the spreadsheet.  I'll have to go back thru the receipt book and add those amounts to the spreadsheet as a footnote. 

If you have any questions, please contact me.

Dear Scouts and Parents,

 

It is hard to come up with a single word to describe our success today in our first Annual Scout and Cub Breakfast but it was a magnificent day.  First, I want to thank Mr. Steve Buck our Committee Member for the fantastic job of cooking and making this day a success.  Second I want to thank Mr. Walt Livingston, our Treasurer who kept everything together by issuing tickets, collecting money, and doing the numerous other small things that the rest of us take for granted.

 

Next I want to thank all of the leaders and parents who pitched in and sold tickets or donated money through purchasing tickets.  I am shocked and amazed at our success.  I knew it was possible, but just this past Thursday as I was sending my final e-mails before leaving town for my father-in-law's funeral, the projections were very light.  The Boy Scouts had confirmed only 30 tickets sold, and the Cub Scouts had a confirmed 60.

 

The projection looked as thought we would be lucky to have a little more than a hundred.  The final count is not in, but sales went extremely well today.  We will discuss what happened today so that when we do this again it will be better.  However, for right now it couldn't have been better. I especially want to thank our Scouts who worked to make things a success as well.  

 

This was a great display of our outstanding Scout program.  Once again thank you.

 

 

Yours in Scouting,

 

J.R. Brockman
