One campership per troop plus an extra for on time re registration funded by local civic groups and individuals. Troops from Fernbank to Central M. E. Church report varied registration, with some reaching above 50 percent while others fall below 30 percent. The program aims to boost troop contributions next winter as registrations rise.
