Friends of Scouting


Pack families, we are nearing the deadline of our Friends of Scouting campaign.

If we can get each of our families to commit to at least a $20 or $30 pledge,  we will not only reach our goal, we will also secure a substantial savings for our Pack.

By meeting our goal, our Pack is able to get ALL advancement awards (this includes rank cloth patches, adventure loops, cyber chip patches, rank cards and all of the adventure pins for Webelos and Arrow of Light) FREE FOR AN ENTIRE YEAR!!  






Your help to our Council through Friends of Scouting will come through with a direct savings straight to OUR UNIT!  Again, all of our rank advancement for our youth will be at no cost to us from April 1, 2018 to March 30, 2019 but only IF WE MEET OUR GOAL OF $1,000.


Please help us meet our goal! 

Our last collection will be March 20 at our Pack meeting.  You may log into the Friends of Scouting website and make your pledge or fill out the pledge card at the March Pack Meeting!  Thank you in advance for all you do for Scouting!

Longhorn Council camps are where we go for most of our Pack campouts.  Did you know that they do not charge Longhorn Council Units for facility usage at all?  The money raised through Friends of Scouting helps keep these camps in top shape... from the infrastructure, to maintenance, to equipment... and new construction builds for the benefit of the youth. Everything raised through Friends of Scouting stays in Council for the benefit for all.  It's a great thing.


Jessica Cristy, Pack 1910's FOS Chair, will be at the March Pack meeting to collect the pledge cards (pictured above). The pledge can be a one-time gift, it can be a monthly or quarterly contribution – however it makes sense for you to meet your commitment, Friends of Scouting can accommodate your request. No gift is too big... no gift is too small...

Or, you can go to www.myfos.org and register your commitment to our campaign. There you will be able to make your commitment and schedule your payments according to your own needs.

(Note: Make sure you designate Pack 1910 when you make your commitment so we can accurately record it).
