UNIT MONEY-EARNING APPLICATION REMINDER
ALL Scouting units are required to submit a "Unit Money-Earning Application" for approval to the senior district executive, Jeffrey Kissell, for ALL unit earning money projects. His fax number is: 473-3305, Attn: Jeff. The Tidewater Council is responsible for upholding the Charter and By-Laws and the Rules and Regulations of the Boy Scouts of America. To ensure compliance, all unit fund-raisers MUST OBTAIN WRITTEN APPROVAL from the local council NO LESS THAN 14 DAYS before the money-earning project. Additionally, please pay special attention the "10 Guides" checklist on page two of the application. A unit's money-earning methods should reflect Scouting's basic values and standards.
** Please note: applications are not required for council-coordinated money earning projects such as, popcorn sales. In addition, the Boy Scout/Cub Scout uniform can only be worn if a unit is selling popcorn**
