Dear friend, one of the main problems has always been the difficulty of finding suitable places and to make sure outputs or camps for scouts, even more days.Was difficulties forced us to resort to the "word of mouth" among different units or groups, or alternatively , having to go to places little or not equipped with all the problems that are often manifested at the last moment. Today, after a few years since we were Scout leaders and ourselves, the situation has worsened, for the restrictions due to the laws, the reduction of areas suitable for Scout activities and, not least, to the lower safety of open spaces and unprotected. To solve these problems, in 1991 some friends and Scout groups have created a voluntary association, and non-profit, which - in turn - has purchased a large plot near Rome, it has hardened and has equipped, to make it suitable to host any kind of Scout activities. The Association B.-P. Park, named after the founder of the scouts, but meets many economic difficulties in the management of this area, which, as you can well imagine, to the huge initial costs of purchase - generously supported thanks to loans of money to many friends - combines considerable current expenses of ordinary and extraordinary, to make the park equipped and safe. To give you a clear idea of our commitment, we enclose an information sheet of the Park, to which we add a few figures: § Initial cost terrain: € 284.567 (ITL 551 million) § Loans friends: € 232.405 (ITL 450 million), yet to be returned to 31/12/2015 € 69.688 § Logistics / structures (eg. Well, toilets, dormitory for cubs and ladybugs, galley): € 723.000 § Maintenance, average per year: € 10.000 § Contributions by guests non-members, average for year: € 13.000 The Association maintains with the self-financing, that is, with the revenues of the shares that pay Scout groups of guests B.-P. Park, with the contribution of some companies, but especially with the help of many friends who are, or have been, Scouts or to parents of children involved in Scouting. We, therefore, need to expand this group of friends and supporters, therefore, we call a dual aid: § a personal contribution of at least € 200, to become part of the "Friends of the B.-P. Park" or € 5.100, in installments, become associate supporter. You can let us have by bank transfer to the account C/C 1590 c/o Credito Cooperativo Agenzia n.105 Roma - Coord.
