BSA TROOP 267 CAMPING TRIP EXPENSE POLICY

4/17/2009 

Background

 

This policy is being put in place to help minimize camping trip expenses, identify the way the Troop collects money for camping trips and to simplify the refund process for camping trips which are less than the amount collected.

 

 

Camping Trip Sign-up

 

Forms are to be filled out and submitted with payment for the event, but not put into the envelope with the money.  Only the money goes into the envelope, check or exact change.  The envelope is to be filled out completely by the person submitting the payment.

 

 

Use of the Credit/Debit Account for Leaders and Boys

 

Each event is calculated as closely to actual cost as possible.

After the event, the costs are calculated, and if the refund to each person is less than $5.00, there will not be a refund or credit to the account.

Refunds over $5.00 are credited to each participant of that event.

Credits can be used to pay for events (camping trips, etc.) and scout related equipment (uniforms and supplies).

Account balances are available on request from the Troop treasurer, camp coordinator, or troop website (www.Troop267BSA.org ).

In the event of a cancellation of an event, after expenses incurred are met, refunds will be placed into the Credit Account.

Upon request of parents, payment will be refunded.

Credits are transferable.

When a boy is no longer registered with a troop, any balance in his account in absorbed into the troop fund.
