Commissions to Packs & Troops selling
Scout-O-Rama tickets will be larger than
ever, according to Carlene Dowling, Scout-
O-Rama Ticket Sales Chairperson. The
Scout-O-Rama Commitee adopted the
plan that has proved popular in councils
throughout America. The plan makes a far
greater variety of prizes available. To
make this possible, each Pack and Troop
will be given the opportunity to establish
their own prize incentive plan. The plan
is really quite simple and the full details
will be spelled out in Unit Ticket Sales
Mr. Mayer and his committee have devoted numerous hours and days in many
weeks preceding this event, in planning
each detail, including promotion and
funding of various aspects. The hard work
of all these Scouters on such a memorable
event will make it possible to provide an
outstanding Scouting Program to all of our
units throughout 1979, 1980 and beyond.
Packets that will be distributed on April
7th.
Under the new plan units can earn as
high as a 45% commission on tickets sold.
Out of the unit commission each unit
determines its own Boy prize incentive
Program. Units will have until May 11th
to turn in ticket money and receive a
40% commission. Tickets turned in between May 12th and 18th will earn a
20% commission. Units that participate
by having a "Booth" in the Scout-O-
Rama will earn a 5% bonus commission
in addition to their regular earned ticket
sales commission. Most units will allocate
between 15% - 20% of a boys ticket sales
toward individual prize incentives. Two
catalogs will be in each Ticket Chairmans
Sales Kit along with detailed suggestions.
Each boy selling $6.00 worth of tickets
will be awarded the Special Scout-O-Rama
Patch. For each $10.00 in sales the boy
will be able to enter a coupon for the
Gala Treasure Chest drawings. Other prizes
will be announced in the special SOR
bulletin and Ticket Sales Packet.
