Mowing for Fun & Profit!


The Venture Crew is being given the opportunity to participate in Troop 1's grounds maintenance fundraising deals with St. Mary's, Resurrection & Hayes Twp. cemeteries. This is a terrific opportunity for Crew members to put funds into your Scout account to help pay for activities, events, dues, uniforms, equipment, etc. Scouts and adult family members can earn $10 per hour cutting grass and / or trimming with weed whackers. Using a riding mower or lawn tractor earns $20 per hour.

You will be able to put your name on a "call list" for any & all of the cemeteries we service. The sign up sheets will be available at the next Crew Meeting, along with detailed information for you & your parents.

Any Scout wishing to participate must attend a MANDATORY safety meeting on May 9th. The Troop Safety Coordinator must confirm you have received the basic training needed to safely operate lawn care equipment.

If you or your parents have any questions, contact the Crew Advisor (Mr. Marsh), the Troop Safety coordinator (Mr. Marsh) or the Troop Treasurer (Mr. Marsh).
