Troop 635 and 1635 Families,  

Many of you saw the message below from the Dan Beard Council that, starting August 1, 2024, they are instituting an $80 annual fee for scouts from 5^th grade - 17 years old.  If you didn't receive the message directly, it is copied below for your awareness.  The committee is exploring ways to reduce the fees collected by the troops to keep the Scouting program as affordable as possible, while still being able to deliver a quality program.  We remain committed, as we always have, to ensuring that costs of participating in Scouts don't make the program inaccessible for anyone wanting to participate.  We don't fully know yet how this will be implemented, but will continue to share information as it's received.  In the meantime, don't hesitate to reach out to me if you have any questions.  

Sincerely,
Ryan Albrecht
T635 Committee Chair
