*Each Scout has a personal fund and monies earned individually from these VOLUNTARY activities are credited toward their account.  The money must be used to defray Scout-related costs such as camping gear, campouts, Summer Camp and other activities.  This money is the property of Troop 132 and is absorbed back into the General Account should the Scout leave the Troop.
