What does it cost to be a member of Troop 388?
There are four major expenses in Scouting: • Membership dues (annually, $60) • Activity fees (approximately monthly, average $20-$40) • Scouting paraphernalia (approximately annually, $50-$100) • Outing gear (one-time, $50-$400; approximately annually, $25-$75) Each boy’s needs are different, and so costs will vary. In a year, you might expect to pay $375-$715 for each of your boys to be a member of Troop 388. That works out to be about $1-$2 dollars a day, or about the same cost as a cup of coffee and a muffin each day.
