2011 CampCard

Circle Ten Council, Boy Scouts of America

HOW THE CAMP CARD SALE WORKS:

The New 2011 CampCard is designed to help youth fund their way to 2011 Camp programs

This is a Risk Free Unit Sales project where all Scouts can earn their way to Camp, Philmont, other activities or simply support unit program or supplies needs

Each CampCard will sell for only $5.00 to the general public and will have multiple food, service and entertainment discounts for the customer to use throughout the year

The participating unit will keep 50% commission of the sales for each CampCard sold!

With the $5.00 Kroger discount, the Camp Card PAYS FOR ITSELF!

Commissions from the sales are encouraged to be applied toward directly sending youth to Summer Camp programs, but they may be used as the unit committee sees fit

The Value of selling CampCards:

Participating in the CampCard allows each Scout to directly fund their way to various Camp programs
