Financial Assistance

The cost of summer camp should never be a barrier to attending summer camp.
There is a limited amount of financial aid available at the Council level.
- Awards are usually in the $75.00 – $100.00 range
- There is a simple one-page form available from the Scoutmaster
- While there is no formal deadline, sooner is better as the pool is finite
- Know that the Council’s first questions are often
  - Did the Scout sell popcorn during the Fall?
  - Did the Scout sell camp cards during the Spring?
Camp Cards are great way to reduce the cost of Summer Camp
- The cards cost $10.00; $5.00 goes to the Council and $5.00 goes to your Scout’s tuition
- Be on the lookout for emails / information about Camp Cards
Please speak with us ASAP if you need assistance.
- At present, Troop 934 does not have a formal financial assistance program. However …
- Troop 934 is committed to providing summer camp for all interested Scouts.

Merit Badge / Activity Registration

Troop 934’s MB/Activity registration form is available here: https://www.troop934.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/T934-CRK-2024-MB-Selection-Form-vFinal.pdf
Please print, complete and email a photo as directed ideally by 15th February 2024.
THIS FORM IS DUE NO LATER THAN APRIL 15th – Unlike prior years we must register all Scouts by 24th April. This does not mean that CRK registration is closed after 24th April, it just means that registration after 24th April is incrementally harder.
Note that Merit Badges for 2024/2025 Ravens (i.e., current Webelos who will join T934 in Feb 2024) are pre-selected. We do need your form for troop picture, T-shirt size and food allergies.
