Troop 2 Annual Awards and Recognition Banquet and Eagle Scout Court Of Honor Raffle Reminder

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.
