Pack 1's 2023-24 Wreath Sale Fundraiser began Monday, Sept. 11, 2023.

​

Our Wreath Sale is Pack 1's only fundraiser of the year. In addition to wreaths, items for sale include garlands, swags, centerpieces, spruce tops and Minnesota-grown wild rice.

 

We believe every Pack 1 Scout can sell at least $150 worth of holiday items, and Pack 1 Den leaders will Do Their Best to train, empower and motivate them to succeed! Parents can help in this effort as well. Incentives for sales-totals greater than $150 include credits for FREE Fall Camp and Spring Camp for Scouts and parents, as well as a gift card for the Scout Shop at Basecamp (see full list below).

 

In addition to the online sales that we have done for the past two years, Scouts and families are allowed to do more traditional door-to-door and other in-person sales activities.  As in every other Scout activity, please use caution and remember "Safety First!" Scouts are encouraged to be in uniform for in-person sales activities.

​
