The annual Scout Pancake Breakfast is Saturday, March 5. Although we don’t know exactly how long the scouts have held the Pancake Breakfast, there is mention of it in the RPC Annual Report for 1961. The Pancake Breakfast is the Troop’s major fundraiser. Our Pancake Breakfast Chairs this year are Rich Hosek and Nina Henderson.

Pancake breakfast tickets will be distributed at this week’s troop meeting. If you cannot attend the meeting, please have someone pick up the tickets for you, or contact Nina Henderson to arrange to pick them up from her. Each packet contains 15 tickets. Each registered scout is required to sell all 15 tickets and to return the $75 by Thursday, February 25. The payment may be made in cash, checks, or a combination. All checks should be made out to “Boy Scout Troop 24”. The payments can be dropped off at a Troop meeting, or to Nina Henderson.

Each scout will also be required to work a shift at the breakfast which is on Saturday, March 5, or at the set-up night Thursday, March 3, if there is an unavoidable conflict for Saturday. If your scout has a conflict for a particular time on Saturday, or if he can only work Thursday, please contact us at pancakes@troop24riverside.com with the details and we will do our best to schedule around it.

Thank you all for your support of our main troop fundraiser. The pancake breakfast funds are used for all troop equipment purchases and other general troop expenses throughout the year.
