Fundraising

Throughout the year Cubs, Beavers and Scouts take part in a number of fundraising activities to raise money to keep our program operating.

Some of the activities you will find our kids involved in are:

Apple Day

It's a chance to for us to say thank you to the public for their support of our activities.  While we don't actively solicit money on Apple Day we find that the community is very generous on that day.  Click on the Apple Day in red above for more details on Apple Day.

Phone Book Delivery

If you received a phone book this year in Prince Rupert, there's a very good chance a Cub, Beaver or Scout delivered it to your door.  Citywest provides us with a generous amount of money for our hard work each December. Click on the Phone Book link in red above for more information.

Camp Kikatee Bottle Drive

Last year we went out on a Saturday morning and collected bottles and cans to help with our registration for Camp Kikatee at the end of May.
Much thanks to the folks at the Rupert Bottle Depot for all their great help.
 

Garage Sales

Last year  we had a giant garage sale at our old Scout Hall location.  As we downsized our operations a bit we realized we didn't need such a huge location and sold off a number of items that were stored in the old hall, many bargains were found on that Saturday.

Popcorn Sales

Mmmmm, who doesn't like Popcorn, almost as soon as our Beavers, Cubs and Scouts begin their year they have order sheets at the ready to fill your popcorn requirements.  They compete for prizes for most sales and help to bring in money for the Scout movement. 

From time to time we also have taken part in Bottle Drives  and Hot Dog/Hot Chocolate Sales, to raise money to attend our wind up camps, or to go out for a weekend get away. 

Whatever activity we take part in, we thank all those who help us out through the year.  Much thanks to all our parents as well, who help their Beavers, Cubs or Scouts out in their many activities.
