Other costs: Throughout the year the group holds a number of activities and events both in and out of the hall such as special theme nights, camps, hikes, four wheel driving, communications, welding, environment, snow, canoeing, river expeditions, etc. These activities have costs in a addition to the fees. The activities are run at cost. The costs are evenly distributed amongst those attending. All group members are expected to attend the majority of these events where they fit in with family and other commitments. Where possible, the leaders will make the costs known as early in the term as possible via the term program. Where costs are cannot be reasonably known in advance, an estimate will be provided. From time to time the group will hold fundraising activities. Our group runs a Christmas Tree drive, operates the parking for the shows at Puffing Billy's Emerald Station and is involved in other community events. Often the group will fundraise on behalf of other community groups such as the R.S.L. and the local primary school. All parents are strongly encouraged to help with these events as they help meet the group operating costs reducing the need to dip into your own pockets. Major events such as Jamboree, Cuboree, other intrastate, interstate, and international events may have special fundraising drives associated with them.
