2013 Camp Cards Updated 1/29/2013


2013 Camp Card

Longhorn Council, Boy Scouts of America

HOW THE CAMP CARD SALE WORKS:
·        The Camp Card is designed to help units fund their way to 2013 Camp programs – this program is extra program for unit and should in no way influence their fall popcorn sales
·        This is a Risk Free Unit Sales project where all Scouts can earn their way to Camp, Philmont, other activities or simply support unit program or supplies needs
 
·        Each Camp Card will sell for only $5.00 to the general public and will have multiple food, service and entertainment discounts for the customer to use throughout the year
 
·        The participating unit will keep 50% commission for each Camp Card sold!
·        Commissions from the sales are encouraged to be applied toward directly sending youth to Summer Camp programs, but they may be used as the unit committee sees fit
