HOT OFF THE PRESS
CAVE BOX @ Sugar Maple Festival
The Cave Box is back! We will be running the Cave Box as a fundraiser at the Sugar Maple Festival. This is usually a fun time, and it's a great way to earn some money for your scout account. (Typically $10 per hour per worker, but could be less if we don't raise enough). We will need 1 adult and up to 2 scouts for each time slot. Look for us in Bellbrock Park. Sign-ups will be handled through Sign-up Genius at the link below. Please only sign up for one slot per scout. If we aren't able to fill up the slots, we will send out a follow-up email.

We will need to have an adult present for each time slot. You don't need to be a registered leader. The adult is just there to make sure everything is running smoothly and keep an eye on the boys and the money. The adult will also need to verify that the boys who are signed up for each time slot were actually there to help (for credit to their scout accounts).
We charge $3 per person or $5 for someone to go twice through the cave box, but Troop 375 scouts and families can go for free. (Repeat free runs should have lower priority if it's busy.) We will have head lamps available to borrow if someone would like a light as they go through the cave box. (Remember to collect them on the way out of the cave box.) We will also offer a glow stick to each paying customer. (So they get a glow stick if they pay $3 or if they pay $5, but not for troop members going for free. If they pay again, they can get another one.)
Try to show up a few minutes early for your time slot to make for a smooth transition between shifts.
Boys should plan on wearing their Class B scout shirts.
You might want to bring a chair.
All of the locks around the cave box use the same combination as the troop trailer: 8375
We will run the cave box on Saturday from 11:00am (start as soon as the parade is finished) through 7:00pm and Sunday from 11:00am through 5:00pm. If it gets too slow on Saturday evening, we might shut it down a little earlier, but I expect it to stay busy until at least 6:00.
