In support of Reduce, Reuse and Recylce efforts, there is an easy way to raise funds for scouts… Just give us your old sneakers!

Collect from friends and relatives and let’s send in as many as we can.

There is NO COST for us to do this. Here are the guidelines:

Only sneakers, no dress shoes, heels, rain boots, sandals, slip-ons, water socks, wedges, and work boots of any kind.

All footwear is required to measure 4.5” from heel to toe (no toddler sneakers)

Pairs only, no singles!

Payment is based on condition and brand of shoe, the better the condition and brand of shoe, the higher the compensation (ranges from $0.25 to $7.00)

Name Brands = Adidas, Altra, APL, Asics, Brooks, Columbia, Converse All-Stars, Fila, Hoka One One, Jordan, Keen, Merrell, Mizuno, New Balance, Nike, On, Puma, Reebok, Salomon, SAS, Saucony, Skechers, Under Armour, Vans

How submitting & compensation will work:

We will track # of pairs submitted by scout per submission and calculate the average compensation per pair.

Just put your sneakers in a bag with your name and “# of Pairs” of sneakers in the bag.

Either bring to meetings or drop off at the Kocot’s house

First submission by June 7th! How many sneakers can you submit?

We are now reserved at Camp Sequassen, in New Hartford CT, for the week of July 24 - 30. Please be sure to contact Wayne this week about about attending camp. A reminder that everyone in camp more than 24 hours will need to submit a full medical form with Part C competed including the physician's signatures on Part C and Part B medication listing. The medical form is due to camp on June 30 for our week at camp.

Our annual Pancake Breakfast is back for 2022 on our traditional Palm Sunday morning, this year April 10th. The gym will be set up to encourage distancing between tables along with other small tweaks. The food and Scout service will be better than ever!  We're asking for alumni help from both our parents and young adults. The troop will be selling tickets after the Masses at St. Greg's March 26 & 27 as well as April 2 & 3.
