Fundraising
Our Cub Scout pack is entirely self funded. We strive to keep dues as low as possible, and for the last 3 years (since the 2021 - 2022 school year) we haven't increased annual dues even though council fees and award costs have gone up. The fee is $130 for the school year (October to September) and we've rolled out a new program where scouts who meet a fundraising benchmark will pay NO DUES next year. This policy incentivizes large families by increasing the likelihood of a free scout in families with multiple kids in the Pack. If you don't want to participate in fund raising, Pack 122 also has a buyout option.
Please support our fundraisers! They enable us to do everything else.
Current Fundraisers
Trail's End Popcorn
When people think of Cub Scouts they often think of Trails End Popcorn. With More than 20 options and more than 70% of the money coming back to the Scouts this is always a hit.
This Fundraiser runs year round online, but look for the scouts and they fundraise with store front sales. A big thanks to Lombard Ace Hardware, Mikes Meat Market in Villa Park, the Villa Park Jewel, and the Villa Park Walmart for letting us set up in front of their store. Trails End offers an online platform where you can buy popcorn and support the scouts all year round. Use the link below to support Pack 122.
Past & Future Fundraisers
Autumn Wreath Sale
Villa Park will again be decorated with the highest quality live wreaths. Pack 122 will be taking orders from our friends and neighbors in September and October. Wreath Orders will resumed in September and will run through the first Wednesday in November.
The Quality of North Woods Wreaths are unparalleled, and the boughs for wreaths and garland can be harvested without killing the tree. In fact a tree that is harvested from can be harvested again in two to five years. If you want to be contacted next year to be included in the order e-mail us at wreaths@vppack122.org.
