Reminder - WE NEED YOUR HELP - The redemption program is struggling.

Bottle and Can sorting - Thursday evenings: 7 PM WHC Garage – Processing returnables for redemption.

We need adult volunteers from our organization to help with this program, as this is our fundraising source and assures costs are kept to a minimum. If this program is unsuccessful, other funding sources will be necessary, and costs for all programs will rise.

We need more support from the group to make this program successful. Please see Mr. Chase if you have any questions or can help us out.

Assistance can be as simple as dropping off empty case boxes, helping sort on Thursday, picking up the materials on Wednesdays, or dropping off materials at the redemption center.

Scouts should also be bringing in as many cans and bottles as they can on a regular basis to support the troop.
