What is a Scout Account?
A Scout Account is a fund held by the troop but belonging to the scout, which can be used to pay for scouting activities and related expenses. A scout earns money for his scout account by participating in fundraising activities. Money can also be deposited into the scout account for convenience. The scout account can be used to pay for campouts, summer camp, dues, troop t-shirts, merit badge classes, and scout-related purchases such as merit badge books and other publications, and outdoor equipment including hiking boots, backpacks, personal camping gear, and the like. An account is established for each active scout and adult Scouter. The Troop Treasurer can tell you your balance at any time.
