Camp Card
Camp Cards should be available February 1 to units that pre-ordered them. Once they are here, DE Trey will let you know. Please encourage your scouts to take advantage of this wonderful way to fund scouting.
Keys to a successful Camp Card Sell...
1) Sell at least 10 cards to each person. The $5 off coupon to Harris Teeter will cover the cost of the purchase of the card for the next 10 weeks that they go to the grocery store. Then, the other $5 goes to support scouting ($2.50 for the child to use towards scouting/pay for camp/whatevery they decide to use it for and the other $2.50 goes to support the council so that the council can return it directly back into the support of the units.)
2) Determine what all the scout wants to have paid for them through the Camp Card Sell. (Example - Scout wants unit fees and summer camp paid for. He needs to sell ____ number of cards.)
For more information about the Camp Card, please visit our council home page.
District Banquet
You are invited to the District Banquet on February 7 at 6:30pm at Wilmington Christian Academy. This will be a special night with great food, fun, and fellowship.

Scouts that earned a Religious Emblem within the past year will also be recognized (if they are in attendance so encourage them to attend). Special thank you in advance to our District Banquet Chairman, James Fredley and his support from Pack and Troop 225.
