2010 Flower Sale Information


Each Scout is required to pay $100 in dues by May 4, 2010.
As in the past, the troop would like to provide you with a resource to help you earn your way. Through the
flower sale, you can earn enough money to pay your dues and raise additional funds for your Scout
Accounts.

Here’s what’s in it for you...


• For every $1 you sell, the troop will immediately put 35 cents in your Scout Account. The more you sell,
the more you earn in your Scout Account.
• ALL profit from the presale orders will go to your Scout Account
• You have 7 weeks to sell. Just like last year!
• Same Supplier as last year! Robben Florist and Greenhouses is well known and because they are located
in Cincinnati, they can provide better service to us and our customers.

Scout Account funds can be used for dues, gear, fees, summer camp, high adventure, uniforms, etc.
On-site Customer Pickup will be one day only — Saturday, May 1st. The troop will also raise money
through a one-day onsite sale in the rear of the church as will the United Methodist Women’s perennial sale
being held the same day as our pick-up.
