Parents -- Did you know your volunteer hours could earn our Scouts MONEY? Ask or inquire if your employer recognizes and supports employees involved in community programs such as scouting. Many area businesses do! Check with your Human Resources or Corporate Communications departments. Typically it is a very simple process that usually requires no more than completing a short application! Some companies will even allow a spouse to contribute volunteer hours in the employee's name! If you are successful, please contact Henry Steiner 363-4143 for questions concerning the application.
