LAST FLAGS for 2026

Posted on Oct 28 2026 - 10:27pm

Message:

Troop 1001--

It's here! Our last flag OUT day event is just around the corner and we will need your help! Since it's a campout weekend, we will be short on scouts, therefore we will take any help we can get- scouts NOT camping, parents, siblings, extended family members, friends, neighbors...! Please consider taking a couple hours out of your Saturday to help us get the flags up to celebrate all our veterans!

Cottonwood News - City of Richardson Increases Commitment to Troop

Posted on Oct 28 2026 - 10:26pm

Message:

The Cottonwood Committee met with the Dianna Lawrence, Richardson's Cottonwood Director, on Wednesday afternoon to discuss the future of Troop 1001's partnership with the city. Dianna started off by stating how much the City of Richardson values the services the troop provides to the artists and how much positive feedback she receives from the artists after every festival. She went on to say that in order to ensure Cottonwood remains a viable fundraiser for the troop, the City has agreed to increase our contracted amount from $1,000 per event to $2,000! She is also working with us to increase messaging to the artists that donations to the troop are expected and help show the artists' support to the city and its citizens that patronize them. We are working with the city on flyers, buttons, emails, and other messaging to help encourage the artists we help to donate generously and increase the return on investment for all of YOUR hard work.

We know how demanding Cottonwood is and we truly appreciate how year after year our families step up to make each event a success. Your efforts don't go unnoticed by troop leadership or by the City of Richardson.

Yours in Scouting,

Chris, Howie, Amy, and Steve - The Cottonwood Committee
