SUMMARY:
Attached for consideration is a request for support of Boy Scout Troop 19 in the amount
of $1,000.
PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION:
None.
BACKGROUND:
Boy Scout Troop 19 is for boys 6th through 12th grade in the Pueblo area. We
consistently participate in local events and service projects, such as flag retiring
ceremonies, parades, volunteering at local churches (serving for special dinners,
rummage sales, small renovations like gazebos and park benches, etc.) and completing
service projects at the Nature and Wildlife Discovery Center of Pueblo, Desert Willow
Health and Rehabilitation Center and much more!
Each year, there are many expenses that come with running our troop. From regional
and national council registration fees, merit badge courses, uniforms, camping
expenses (food, equipment, travel expenses, lodging) to the annual summer camping
event and other enrichment activities (skiing, Rockies games, Dinosaur Resource
Center, etc) our scouts are calling out to you for help.

Contingencies Account in the 2024 General Fund Budget to American Legion Post 2,
as the fiscal sponsor of Boy Scout Troop 19.
