Volunteers Needed for Spring 2012!
Step up and volunteer to join the Pack Committee. Parent leaders in these positions are eager to train you now! (as of February 2012). You'll learn a lot about the scouting program and make a difference in the lives of all of our scouts and families.  And your boy will learn by your good example.  Tell your den leader if you'd like to help out.  Here's what we need:
  • Assistant Cubmaster:
    Back up the Cubmaster in running Pack Meetings. Help plan Pack meetings and events. Control the Spirit Stick to throttle up the scouting spirit!
  • Advancement Coordinator:
    Coordinate with Den advancement coordinators on a monthly basis to track advancement progress of the scouts. Order badges and insignia and prepare for disbursement at pack meetings. Assist pack and den leaders in encouraging scout advancement.
  • Fundraising Coordinator:
    Work closely with Pack Treasurer to determine funding needs for the Pack. Research and present fundraising ideas/programs to pack committee.     Assist in coordinating and planning existing events including Scout o Rama ticket sales. Communicate with den leaders regarding fund raising activities, progress and participation expectations.

Volunteer Incentive Programs

Volunteers throughout the Grand Canyon Council are visiting with their employers about volunteer incentive programs (different companies have differing names).  Mini-grants are made upon application and approval rewarding volunteerism. Contact your Human Resources department or Corporate Foundation for details. 

Complete the upper portion of the VIP application form and send it to the

Grand Canyon Council
Director of Development
2969 N Greenfield Rd
Phoenix, AZ  85016
We will complete the remaining portion of the form - providing validation and forwarding the application to the company for processing.

It is important to note that due to IRS regulations matching gifts and volunteerism grants are not available to units.

Camp fees will be $8 per person, or $25 per family, whichever is less. Please pay your Den Leader, either before the campout or at camp.

 Friends of Scouting Needs Donations!

The Boy Scouts of America is a non-profit organization, and the bulk of its funding comes from donations. Friends of Scouting's mission is to raise money which benefits the local district directly. By donating to Friends of Scouting, our donated dollars get the most bang for our buck. Let's help our district continue to provide an awesome scouting program which directly influences our boys in a positive, life-changing way. Check out FOS Flyer 2012 for more info.
