Troop Applebee’s Flapjack Breakfast Success
Troop 157 had a fairly successful Flapjack breakfast at Applebee’s in Middletown NY. We made roughly $250 this time around, which will help offset the high cost of summer camp for everyone who helped. Thanks to all our leaders and parent volunteers for their help, as well as all our scouts who worked very hard to make this fundraiser a success.
A special thanks to Steve and his team at Applebee’s Neighborhood Grill in Middletown for once again allowing us to put on a successful event in their great establishment.
Reminder: Troop Applebee’s Flapjack Breakfast this Saturday the 26th
Hosted at Applebees in Middletown NY on October 26th. 
Tickets are 5$ and were pre-sold, and are also available at the door, so remind your friends, family and neighbors to come show their support!
Proceeds from this fundraiser go towards funding summer camp in 2014.
