- Our pack has two big fundraisers. The first is a Christmas wreath sale. The
- second is Christmas tree recycling. Several packs and troops in our area work
- with the local garbage hauler. They do the advertising and actually mulching.
- We do the pickup and keep all the donations.
-
- One of the local troops has an interesting fund raiser. They contacted local
- businesses about having their flag put up and taken down on hollidays. One
- of our den leaders bought the service for his business. The companies get to
- support the Scouts, show their civic pride and don't have to go into work and
- put up the flag on the holiday.
