FEES

There are three sessions in a calendar year, beginning approximately September 1, January 1, and May 1.  The Snowfox fee schedule is based upon the age of the swimmer, which generally relates to the amount of practice time necessary for success.  These fees compare very favorable with other professionally directed youth activities available and perhaps even more favorably when compared to other age group swimming programs nationally of similar quality.  A multiple swimmer discount is available at the third child and applies to the swimmer with the lesser dues value. In addition to the fees listed below, a $5 coaching fee will be assessed per swimmer, per meet.  Our current fees for each session are as follows:

Developmental 1 (D1)
$250
Developmental 2 (D2)
$275
Bronze
$300
Silver
$325
Gold & Platinum
$350

Meet fees consist of splash fees for each event the swimmer is entered into and a surcharge for each swimmer participating in the meet.  The surcharge is assessed to help defer the coaches meet expenses during the season.  The amount assessed for splash fees and surcharges varies between meets.  However, splash fees are normally $2 to $3 for each event the swimmer is entered into.  The surcharge for each swimmer is normally $3 to $8 per meet. A one time per year USA Swimming registration is due in the Fall.  That fee is $51. 

All meets we participate in are sanctioned by USA Swimming.  Therefore each swimmer participating in meets must be a member of USA Swimming.  The annual membership fee includes accident insurance for the swimmer at practices, meets and while traveling to practices or competitions.  The actual coverage details and exclusions are described in the insurance policy available from the Treasurer. 

Fundraising Committment

Our biggest fundraising events are the meets that we host each year. With the exception of hosting the state meet which is on a rotation system set forth by the SD LSC, we host 3 three meets per year.  Each family is required to donate items to concessions for each meet in addition to volunteer 9 hours at each meet.  Snowfox also holds team fundraising events that are determined by the membership and carried out by the Fundraising Committee.  Each Family will NO Longer be responsible to meet a fundraising committment of $100 per  family.  That fee is now built into your dues requirement.  You may still participate in family fundraising as you have in the past. Examples of Family Fundraising are ... HyVee Cards, Great Lakes Scrip Cards, Butter Braids, Ads, Younkers)   Contact the fundraising committee (Marla Skadsen) for more questions.
