Boston Butts Sales

Troop 21,


At long last it is finally here. The now annual Troop 21 "Fourth of July Bar-B-Que" Fundraiser.


Fourth of July already!?

Yes, already! We will kick off the sale next Monday at the Troop meeting. The sale will run for 4 weeks, ending on Saturday Jun 9th. Why Saturday Jun 9th. This is the day that the Scouts will depart for summer camp. All orders and monies are due on that day, Saturday June 9th. I will be there to collect all the orders. Make checks payable to Troop 21. We will receive and deliver everyone's order on Monday June 18th at the Hut. This will give everyone 2 weeks prior to the Fourth of July to distribute their orders. I will be sending an excel spreadsheet (order form) that everyone will need to print out to take orders. I will be on hand next Monday to answer any questions.


This year we will be working with Dreamland Bar-B-Que, "Ain't nothing like'm nowhere,"  We will have a couple more items to sell this year. In addition to Boston butts, we will offer slabs of ribs, pecan pie, quarts of Dreamland BBQ sauce as well as some combo offerings. The Dreamland producst come to us freshly cooked, flash frozen, then cryovacked. These product will stay fresh for 6 months in the freezer. Perfect for families who want to order extras.


This is a great way for your scout to bank money for his upcoming high adventure trips. Last year we had several scouts bank over $300.00 in their accounts. Approximately 95% of the all the profits are distributed into the Scouts accounts to be used to offset the cost of high adventure trips like Philmont, Seabase and Northern Tier.



Last year we sold over $7000.00 in Boston butts. We distributed over $4000.00 into the Scouts accounts. This year should be bigger and better, personally I think we could sell over $10,000.


Time to get selling,


Nevin Cox.
