TROOP DUES are now PAST DUE

Please go onto the Troop website and pay your Scout ($80) & Adult ($30) troop dues were DUE before 9/30. We would love to get our Troop recharter off on the right foot, which starts with knowing who is in the Troop!

NOTE - THIS IS ONLY THE Troop's portion and the cost for national will be collected separately. $85/scout & $65/adult

On the left column under "menu," click on "online payments." (https://www.troop1001.org/paypal/pay)

You'll need to change the name for adult vs. scout...just "add to cart," then go to "view cart" to pay online.

We're still working on the detail for the national recharter. More details to come after the next district roundtable event.

Cottonwood Art Festival - THIS WEEKEND!

Posted on Oct 2 2025 - 7:55pm

Message:

Cottonwood Art Festival is a major fundraising event for our Troop that helps defray the costs associated with Scouting and provides an opportunity for the Troop to engage with the community by volunteering our time to the city and artists.

To ensure that our assigned volunteer duties are successful, each scout is expected to work a minimum of eight hours at the festival. All time after eight hours count toward rank volunteer hours. Troop 1001 parents/guardians are expected to volunteer a minimum of eight adult hours during the festival – wear your Troop 1001 green t-shirt. We especially need help with loading artists in on Friday and loading out on Sunday night. The entire Troop is needed to support the Cottonwood Art Festival.
