Thank you for this info! I truly appreciate it! I’ll get right on the wreaths to see if we can swing it.

Thank you! Thank you so much for this info, wow! Such a big help! As for your questions, I do not have solid answers. -I think the charter is offering a one time funding. -Our town is not financially well off, so a lot of scouts are on registered assistance. We're about to bring up the discussion of class A's with the families at the next pack meeting. -I'm sorry, I don't understand the leader support question. Can you reword this for me? If you mean registered adults with their scouts....we have it so each scout pays $200 and that also covers their parent. -We just talked about wreaths last night, I didn't know it was too late! Darn it! It'll have to be candy, and I will be asking the legion to partner with us for a pancake breakfast as well. I suggested Christmas tree disposal but since the kids are so young that was thrown out. Honestly, after looking at all of the breakdowns I'm sure this is why the pack folded in the first place. But if we can really get a great fundraising team, I'm sure we'll succeed! -

Hello and good evening! My name is Kiki and I am the Pack Committee Chair for a newly formed cubscout pack. I have experience as an adult leader in scouting from 2011-2014, but I was only the membership coordinator, and Webelos Den Leader. And I overthink everything. Our local American Legion has agreed to charter us, agree to pay the chartering fee, and offer a kickstart to get us started. The Pack Committee has decided on an ask for $2000 since we're starting from essentially nothing. We are behind 'budget' by about $300 by the time November rolls around, if that information is important. My questions are: 1. Is $2000 too much of an ask? We have missed the popcorn season which is why it's so high. We have 10 registered kiddos and 8 registered adults right now, but estimate another 8 joining us. 2. I would like to provide a detailed 'ask', a proposal of sorts to outline what we need, what we would like, and what the cost breakdown would be. Is there an appropriate template for this? These are my current questions for now, thank you for your time if you're reading this, and happy scouting!
