Boy Scout Finance
Campaign Begins
On October 16
A. B. Phillips has been named
chairman of the 1951 Boy Scout
finance campaign in Juneau, George
A. Parks, Alaska Council President,
announced today. The campaign
organization plans are being com
pleted this week under the leader
ship of Phillips and Juneau mem
ber.-; of the Ala;kr Council executive
board.
Recruiting of team captains and
workers in the campaign organiza
tion is now under way. More than
60 Juneau and Douglas business
and professional men will assist in
the campaign scheduled for next
week, Phillips said. An “early bird’s”
kick-off breakfast will launch the
"dawn to dusk" drive fer funds on
October 16.
This is the annual campaign for
funds to support the program and
work of the Alaska Council. Boy
•Scouts of America, a cooperative
organization of the communities in
£la.ska to extend the scouting pro
gram to Alaska boys. The Alaska
Council administers and services
the program of scouting in the ter
ritory which now serves a mem
bership of over 2,000 Cub Scouts,
Boy Scouts, and Explorers and more
than 8C0 volunteer scout leaders.
The 1931 campaign will feature
the wearing of small lapd buttons
by contributors, Phillips said. The
buttons bear the map of Alaska on
which is superimposed a Tenderfoot
Scout badge and the slogan, 'Back
ing Alaska’s Eoys." the theme of
the 1951 campaign.
“Wc hope everyone will wcr.r one
of these buttqjis next week," said
Phillips, "as they signify the usual
whole-hearted response of our cit
izens to the annual appeal for funds
for the administration of the scout
ing program in Juneau and the
Alaska Council.”
