Pacific Skyline Council ops and program costs

The Pacific Skyline Council (PacSky), the local Scouts BSA organization that supports our Scouts, respectfully asks that families help with program costs and operations maintained to benefit our Scouts.

Every family should give a minimum of $120 per Scout to help pay for costs of maintaining resources that directly and indirectly benefit all of us. That is the annual cost equivalent of just $10 per month. Consider it part of the membership fee for a program that teaches life skills and values to kids from Palo Alto to Daly City.

You likely recognize the image above as the Friends of Scouting brochure. That program is being replaced by this fund raising appeal, the 'Good Turn Assessment'. You will not be asked for money to support the Pacific Skyline Council again. Most years our Scouting program (registration, campsite fees, etc.) is already paid for with money earned from selling garlic fries at the Pumpkin Festival, and now we need to support our parent Scouting organization which offers training, infrastructure, and activities to support local troop initiatives and more.

Please help extend the value that our whole community receives from preparing youth with life skills and values embodied in the Scout Oath and Law.
