Raffle Items needed for the Troop 2 Annual Awards and Recognition Banquet
The Troop 2
Annual Awards and Recognition Banquet will be held on April 9th, and as in the
past we are asking scout families to help us fill the raffle table with
items.
This
raffle is the sole fundraiser for the Eagle Scout Scholarship.
Last year, through the generous donations of Troop 2 families, we were able to
raise over $800.00 and funded several Eagle Scout Scholarships. The Eagle
Scout Scholarship is available to any scout who achieves the rank of Eagle
Scout upon successful completion of a semester of higher education.
Your help is
needed to make the year's raffle a success. Please consider donating an
item to the raffle or partnering with another scout family to donate an
item. Another option this year is to consider making a small
monetary contribution in lieu of an item. The contribution can be any
amount ($5-$10 or whatever you are comfortable with). These contributions
add up quickly and allow us to purchase a large raffle item. Please send
contributions to a weekly scout meeting with your son in a sealed envelope -
clearly marked – “Eagle Scout Scholarship Raffle Contribution”.
Past items have
run the gamut from gift cards, gift certificates to local establishments and
services, outdoor equipment and scouting items, gift baskets and handmade
items.
We would like
to receive all items by Friday, April 1st. Items and contributions can be
brought to any Monday night scout meeting or can be dropped off at 79 Front Street.
Please
contact Teresa Quinton at 781-340-7446 or via email at trjq@comcast.net if you have any
questions, need an item picked up, or would are interested in helping with the
raffle.
