Troop/Crew Annual Dues Now Due

Time for Troop/ Crew 180 to recharter.  Meaning, 2005/06 Troop/ Crew 180 Dues are now due.  The good news is that dues have been reduced to $90
for the '05/'06 Scouting year.  Dues can be paid at this Tuesday night Court of Honor.

1. A Troop 180 member and/or Male Crew 180 member under 18 - Dues are $90.00.
2. A Female Crew 180 member under 18 - Dues are $40.00.
3. Anyone 18 or older registering for Troop and/or Crew 180 - Dues are $10.00.
4. If you would also like a Boys Life Subscription - add $12.00 (to the dues above)

Dues can be paid out of the Scout's escrow account.

1. Escrow accounts; To acquaint parents of new Scouts with our terminology, "escrow" is an account that the Troop 180 treasury holds for each Scout.  The
   Troop/Crew earns 30% of popcorn sales revenues. 50% of the Troop's earnings (15% of the total revenue) of a Scout's popcorn sales are placed into that
   escrow account along with earnings from other fund raisers like the tape sale.  A Scout may use his escrow account money for Scout uniform parts, camping
   equipment, summer camp, dues and major Scouting trips.  It may not be used for non-Scouting purposes.
2. The $90 dues ($40 for female Crew) may be either a direct payment or come from escrow funds.
3. Registered adults pay the $10 national BSA registration fee.  There is no additional fee.  This also applies to anyone between 18 and 20 who is registered as an adult leader in Troop 180, a youth member of Crew 180, or both.  There is no fee for adults who have their primary registration elsewhere and multiple register with Troop or Crew 180.
4. There is no additional fee to register with both Troop 180 and Crew 180.
5. Anyone may subscribe to BOYS LIFE magazine at the time of rechartering for an additional $12.00.
6. Financial assistance is available, to ensure all Scouts can participate in the learning and fun.
