Boy Scout Troop 168 Southlake, Texas David Lackey, Scoutmaster 519 N. Kimball Avenue Southlake, TX 76902 Summer, 2009 Dear Community Member, Troop 168 Needs You! Boy Scout Troop 168 was formed seven years ago, and it is positively affecting the lives of over 60 young men in our area. This year, on Sunday, August 9, 2009, we will showcase our troop at the annual St. Laurence Day Picnic. Over 400 church and Scout family members are expected at the event. Troop 168 will host a silent auction to raise funds for troop equipment. Proceeds from the auction will be used to purchase camp gear such as Dutch ovens, camp stoves, tents, campouts and activities. Would you please consider making a donation to Scout Troop 168? All donations will be recognized as donated from your establishment. This letter, along with a future letter of appreciation from the Troop, indicating your exact donation, will serve as documentation of your gracious donation. We are a volunteer organization and would appreciate any item, service or money that will assist with our operating expenses. We are also establishing a scholarship fund for summer caps. If interested please let our Scout know, and an officer of the Troop will contact you as soon as possible. Please call one of our leaders below, and we will come by to pick up your donation. We would like to receive items by Aug. 1, 2008. In return, we invite you to enjoy lunch with us on Sunday, August 9. Thank you for your support, (scout name)___________________________________ David Lackey Scoutmaster 214-507-0177 (patrol sponsor name and phone) _________________________________________ Frank M.
