Committee Meeting Notes 2-28-2011

Meeting Open:
Discussed the treasury account regarding the Pancake Breakfast Fund raiser.
the profit will be divided 20% for the Troop, 10% for the Pack, and 70% to the boys the worked at the pancake breakfast.  This includes the weblow scout that will join Troop 56 after crossover.

The Boy Scouts of Troop 56 each have an account, where funds earned can be used for Scouting related expenses.  Throughout the year as the boy work to raise money to support the troop, a percentage with be added to there individual account.  These accounts are all being held in the Troop 56 checking account.

Next on the agenda, we discussed which week the troop will be going to camp Cuyuna, Cass Lake, MN.
We need to finalize the week and put a deposit on the site.   Right now we are strongly looking at the week of July 3rd thru July 9th.  There is only one lake front site still available.  The site is Cree.  A very nice site.
The Parents and boys need to look the calander and make a commitment.   The depoist is non refundable.
We need a minimum to 2 adults in camp thru out the week.  If any adults can come up for a 2 or 4 days, that would be great.  If you can be there for the whole week, that is even better.

We need to lock in a site this week.   please let Mike Madsen know if the week of July 3 thru the 9th can work.

Next, we discuss Webelos crossover at the spring camporie at Ceder Point Boy Scout Camp, and also the Pack meeting at Ceder Park, where the boys that are crossing over to Troop 56 will receive there scout handbook.
