The handbook is MORE than clear ... everything you site MUST come out of the Young Men's budget. It is not an issue of you being able to pay etc.

Scouts can fund raise but ONLY to pay for one camp as previously stated.

If anyone disagrees, you can take it up with Elder Packer, He was instrumental in creating the new budget system the church now operates under.
