thanks for the input. Our SM doesnt want the boys to pay for registration, camping etc. so i was going to try and have a $200 - $300 roll over budgeted each year to take care of incidentals, registration, misc. non-budgeted items. Do any of you leaders charge an administration fee? Example renewal/ registration - boys life

Thank you for the input. Yes our webelos II boys are crossing over next week. We have some equipment that was a pervious group of boy scouts. Our troop is actually restarting there hasn't bee a boyscout troop for about six years. So we are all new parents volunteering to get this started. We have an Eagle Scout Parent who will be our Scout Master and some other trained parents to fill in some gaps. We have raised about $1500 this year to start the troop with the help of our troop and fund raising. I'm trying to get a handle of the cost due to the Scoutmaster has some really big ideas that are going to cost alot of money that will eat up the money we currently have to start. I'd like to create a small reserve so we are comfortable. Thanks

Thanks alot - hamecosys@charter.net

Our existing cub scout pack is starting a boy scout troop. We are on a limited starting budget and are looking for examples of yearly budgets that other troops may share with us. I'm very new at this and if anyone is will to share a budget of expenses that we should be aware of that would be greatly appreciated!
