Alameda Troops 7 & 2 and Crew 2 Needs-Based Campership Application
The Scoutmasters of Troop 2 & 7 and the Adult Leader of Crew 2 feel that finances should not prevent a Scout from being able to attend Scouting events. As a result, a Campership (camp scholarship) fund has been established for Troop 2, Troop 7, and Venture Crew 2 Scouts/Crewmates who may need financial assistance.

Paypal is the easiest way for Troop 7 to accept and process payments. To help cover the cost of our merchant fee (what PayPal charges us), a surcharge of ~3% of the transaction has been added.
If you prefer to pay by check, make the check out to "BSA TROOP 2" and write your Scout's name and where the check should be applied on the front of the check. Give your check directly to one of the Scoutmasters. The surcharge does not need to be added for fees paid by check.
