2019 CAMP CARDS A SCOUT IS THRIFTY Scouts works to pay their way and to help others. They save for unforeseen needs. They protect and conserve natural resources. They carefully use time and property.
2019 CAMP CARD SALE A Scout is Thrifty… They earn their own way to Summer Camp! The Palmetto Council is excited to announce the 2019 Camp Card program! This initiative is designed to help Scouts earn the funds they need to pay their own way to a Summer Camp experience. The commission paid on cards sold is 50% or $5 for each $10 card sold. The 2019 Camp Card has been developed with higher value offers to maximize your Scouts’ potential earnings. We have three card versions: Catawba District (Chester & Lancaster counties), Daniel Morgan District (Cherokee, Spartanburg and Union counties), and York District (York county). Cards ordered will be distributed at the January District Roundtable/Banquet and the sale will run for approximately 8 weeks. Any unsold cards can be returned by the deadline highlighted in the sale timeline at no cost to your unit. THE VALUE OF SELLING CAMP CARDS: • Average Scouts BSA Camp - $300 = 60 Cards • Average Cub Scout Day Camp - $100 = 20 Cards CAMP CARD BENEFITS • Card Price - $10 • Commission per card sold - $5 (50%) • No Risk—unsold cards can be returned by deadline • Council Approved Fund-Raiser: Scouts can and should sell in uniform • The BIGGEST card we have ever offered • 3 Versions - geographically designed 2019 TIMELINE December 13 (Roundtable) Unit card orders due January 10 (Roundtable/Banquet) Cards distributed to units February 21 Return deadline for unsold cards (turn-in locations to be set by district). Units are financially responsible for any cards kept beyond this date! March 14 (Roundtable) Sale Ends — Money Due ORDER CARDS! Place an order for your unit at www.palmettocouncil.org/camp-cards by December 13th!
ORDERS & REORDERS The council will place an order for camp cards after all units have placed their order on December 13th. If you need additional cards during the sale, please ask Taylor Thomas. RETURN POLICY Unsold camp cards can be returned at no cost to the District on or before February 21st. Units will be responsible for all cards kept after February 21st. HOW TO SELL THE CARD DOOR-TO-DOOR: Take your cards for a trip around the neighborhood. Highlight the great coupons and that the cards will save them money! Encourage them to buy more than one card because the break off coupons can only be used one time and more than pay for the card. Let everyone know you are trying to earn your way to camp. STORE FRONT SALES: Set up a sales booth and sell Camp Cards on the spot. This can be an effective approach in the right location at the right time. Focus on multiple locations over the course of the sale. It is important to always ask permission from the store manager prior to setting up in front of a store. Many businesses prohibit store front sales, please respect their policies. Also it is important to check with your district as many have district signup sheets for store fronts that must be signed up for at the district. Locations to consider include Walmart, Lowe’s, Sam’s, Tractor Supply, grocery stores, etc. Again, make sure you have permission prior to setting up in front of any stores. ONLINE: New to the 2019 sale is the ability to sell online! Each unit will have a link that they can promote online. The council will mail the card to the customer. We will also have a First Responder donation for relatives out of town who still wish to support your Scout. Customers will be able to list a Scout they are supporting. The commission will be taken off the final invoice for the unit. SAFETY AND COURTESY Be sure to review these safety and courtesy tips with your Scouts and parents: • Always sell with another Scout or with an adult—NEVER alone. • Never enter someone’s home. • Never sell after dark. • Don’t carry large amounts of cash, but do carry change! • Always walk on the sidewalk and driveways—stay off the grass. • Be careful of dogs while selling. • Say THANK YOU even if they don’t buy a card.
IT’S EASY TO SELL—LET ME SHOW YOU HOW! SALE TECHNIQUES FOR SCOUTS Don’t miss the opportunity to use the Camp Card sale to train your Scouts in public speaking, sales and service. Your Scouts and parents will appreciate the effort and your sales will improve. Camp Card sales may also qualify for some requirements towards the Salesmanship Merit Badge and other advancement opportunities. • Have Scouts role play and practice during the kickoff. • Find a way to make training fun and reward Scouts who do a good job. HAVE YOUR SCOUTS PRACTICE THESE SIMPLES STEPS • Wear your Uniform. • Smile and say – “Hello, my name is ______________. I’m a Scout with (Pack/Troop /Crew) ______. • Tell them what you are doing – “I’m trying to raise money so that I can attend Summer Camp this year.” • Tell them what they can do to help – “I’m selling Camp Cards that will not only help me go to Summer Camp, but will help YOU save money as well.” • Point out a couple of the valuable coupons. • Close the sale, and say, “Thank you!” WE ARE SELLING THE ADVENTURE OF CAMP, NOT JUST THE CAMP CARD Ensure your Scout families understand that they are selling character, they are selling a better community, and they are selling all the benefits of Scouting and the camping activities; NOT just a Camp Card. Emphasize that every card sold helps a Scout go to camp. The reason our sale will be a success is that people want to support Scouting as much as they want to buy a camp card. UNIT TIPS • Hold a kickoff. • Set goals / show benefits. • Offer prizes. • Train Scouts how to sell. • Set up store front opportunities for families. • Accept credit cards. • Find a way to make training fun and reward Scouts who do a good job.
