Pack 4 Candy Sales

What:

Pack 4 funds all of our activities and activity supplies thru annual Candy Sales.  We do Candy Sales over other kinds of fundraising activities for many reasons (just ask, we'll be more than happy to explain it).

We do our fundraising early in the year so we have money to pay for what we do all year long (including over the summer!).  Not only do the Candy Sales fund us for the upcoming year, they also are fun for the Scouts as well as a way for them to develop skills and confidence they will be able to use the rest of their lives.

We ask that each Cub Scout sell 2 boxes of candy bars.  The Pack gets $.50 on each $1 we take in with the other $.50 going to Hebert.  In addition to this we have a couple "All Hands" type of events scheduled in October where each Cub Scout particpates to sell candy and have some fun.

When:

Saturday, October 1, 2005 @ 9:00 AM - 4:00 PM and Sunday, October 2, 2005 @ 9:00 AM - 4:00 PM
These events will be held light rain or shine (but we cannot hold them without Scouts!)

Where:

On Saturday we have 3 concurrent locations:

  • Stop & Shop
  • Robinson's Ace Hardware
  • Hudson Post Office ( 9:00 AM - 12:00 PM only )

On Sunday we are just at:

  • Wal-Mart

Cost:
We are asking Cub Scouts sign up for at least a 2 hour time slot so we can adequately cover all the locations all the time.
Miscellaneous Information / Guidelines:
  • All Cubs should be in uniform (hats optional)
  • Be courteous and do not badger the customers!
  • Only approach customers after they have exited the store
  • A simple "Would you like to buy a candy bar for the Cub Scouts" is adequate
  • If a person purchases a candy bar, say "Thank you"
  • If a person does not purchase a candy bar, say "Thank you anyway"
