Thank you message from Bill McDonald,
2013 General Scout Fair Chairman

Please join us for The Best Scout Fair on Earth, Sam Houston Area Council's annual Scout event on Saturday, April 13, 2013 at Reliant Arena. Scout Fair is where Scouts from all over the Council unite in one place to display Scouting fun for all ages! Units-- take advantage of the chance to showcase your Scouting skills by participating in a unit booth. The planning and teamwork involved in booth participation provides great fun and learning opportunities.
    Plan your day to capture many activities:
    • Meet industry experts at the Merit Badge Midway & Conservation Corner
    • Try your luck with games of skill
    • Interact with other units across the Council
    • Sample outdoor cooking creations
Selling Scout Fair Coupon Packs not only sustains the Scout Fair Event and other Council programs, it also provides a great fundraising opportunity for your unit and allows Scouts to fund Scouting programs and activities by "earning their own way." Each Coupon Pack sells for only $10 offering over $500 in savings. When Scouts sell 15 or more Coupon Packs, they'll earn the Super Salesman Patch, qualify for entry in weekly drawings and earn great prizes from the Scout Fair Coupon Pack Prize Brochure. All units receive a 30% base commission for each $10 Scout Fair Coupon Pack sold with funds turned in on or before April 13, 2013.

Participate at Scout Fair as either a Service Unit or Booth Participant and earn an additional 10% commission. The Coupon Pack Prize Brochure features prizes for various sales levels. The Best Scout Fair on Earth is in partnership with Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey® Circus.

Scouts reaching the Lions and Tigers Level (selling 213 Coupon Packs) receive a VIP Family-Four Prize Package to Ringling Bros. and Barnum and Bailey presents DRAGONS on July 17, 2013.

Thank you for your involvement in Scouting and I look forward to seeing you at The Best Scout Fair on Earth on Saturday, April 13th, 2013.

Yours in Scouting,
Bill McDonald
Scout Fair General Chairman
