Annual Member Re-enrollment

Two years ago, BSA raised annual Scout membership fees by $12 and volunteer fees by $13.   Despite this, Troop 718 kept dues at $125, and absorbed these increases.

After much consideration, and to ensure we always provide the best Program possible for our Scouts, we are increasing annual dues to $140.  Eagle Scout dues will remain at $95.  Dues for any Scout turning 18 in 2017, regardless of rank, is $50.

Many Troops require Scouts to sell popcorn or other products, to offset Troop costs.  We believe this $15 increase creates less of a burden to our Scout families than to enact mandatory fundraising.

The price change will take place in November, at re-enrollment.  We understand this may impact some families.  Please know that financial assistance or payment plans are available.  If needed, discuss your situation with Randy Klinenberg, our Committee Chairperson.
