Dues structure:

  1. Registration fees are due no later than the November Pack Meeting for returning Scouts, or arrangements for a payment plan / financial assistance made.  
  2. Popcorn Fundraiser~ Pack 85 operates mainly on proceeds from the yearly BSA popcorn fundraiser. Popcorn goal is for the equivalent of each Scout to sell $700 worth of popcorn. ***As of the 2023-2024 year, Pack 85 is not doing in person popcorn sales. It will still be offered through each registered Scout's individual Trails End link.***

If anyone needs financial assistance anytime throughout the year, please let us know!
