The FALL T142 Fundraiser is a VOLUNTARY event (vs "mandatory") whose purpose is to help us purchase new or replacement equipment for the troop.
Sell what you can and return the remaining tickets and payments for your sales.
We need to sell 450 tickets to purchase the remaining 7 tents to replace the existing Eureka tents.
For those who want to sell tickets, we will be at this week's Court of Honor from 6:30pm - 9:00pm.
ALL money and unsold tickets are Final Due next Thursday, October 1st, 2026.
We're be selling tickets following the the October 3rd and 4th Masses and need YOUR help (whether you sold tickets or not, you are helping the Troop!).
Thus far, only 1 Scout and 1 Parent have signed up to help. (I can't handle this by myself!)
Please Sign-up on the troop calendar.

IF you have a Cub Scout in Pack 142 and are selling tickets for them as well...
Keep the Pack and Troop tickets separated as Troop 142 receives no revenue from the tickets sold by the pack and vice-versa.
We're getting very thin on Assistant Scoutmasters (ASM's) and need your help (male and/or female parent).
Parents who were active as an ASM in past years are limiting their involvement with the troop once their scout achieves the rank of Eagle and/or turns 18.
A lack of ASM's raises the likelihood that a trip or event may need to be cancelled due to the absence of available scoutmasters.to lead/assist in the function.
These are events that the SCOUTS have requested.
Adult training is part of the program. Most courses are online except Introduction to Outdoor Leader Skills.
This is an opportunity for you to watch your scout grow as they learn new skills or seeing the outdoors through their eyes.
Along the way you're also help other scouts by helping them earn requirements for the next rank.
We understand that everyone is busy these days. We're asking for your help in stepping up and helping the scouts of troop 142.
The skills that we teach the scouts stays with them into the future well-past scouting.
Please see Scoutmasters Shane Myers and Bill Maney to find out more information.
