HOW: Each Scout gets ten (10) tickets for our Annual Fundraiser Dinner (feel free to ask for more if you can sell them!)  These tickets are $10 each.  Every Scout who sells ten tickets and brings in the money will be entered into a drawing that week for a GREAT prize.

PARENTS: Boy Scouts and their families can sell tickets to the dinner. The Scouts can go door-to-door selling tickets, in their uniforms, with proper supervision. However, under BSA rules, Scouts and families CANNOT solicit for items to be entered in the silent auction. We can only ask for direct donations for the auction as a Youth Ministry of Spanish River Church, not as Boy Scouts of America.  Auction items include gift certificates to salons, golf, massage, art, sporting tickets, fishing, etc. Please keep these guidelines in mind, and start bringing in your auction items to the troop meetings.

Print out the event flyer to bring with you.
