FUND RAISING
REQUIREMENTS Each PSL family is required to take part in
fund-raising
events. Fund raising credits can be earned in several ways, each
of
which is described below.
1. AQUATHON: This
year, the Aquathon will take place in either May or June. Each
swimmer, with the coach, determines the number of laps a
swimmer can complete in a 2-hour swim session. Swimmers are
asked to have "sponsors" who will donate money for each lap the
swimmer completes. Parents count their child’s laps, and a
potluck
dinner is held immediately following. Each family is
encouraged to have a minimum of $50.00 sponsorship.
2. SWIM MEETS: PSL has
a reputation in the Bay Area of hosting
swim meets of the highest caliber. Much of our operating budget
is
generated from the Club hosting swim meets each year. One of
the
commitments made when you join the PSL is to help work our
own swim meets. We usually host 1-2 Meets/year. This is highly
recommended, because we are a PARENT Organization, and also
because you will learn all the ins and outs of swim
competition!
We ask that each family work at least 40 hours for the team
during each year. These hours are recorded and allow families
to
go on the annual team trip for a reduced price. If you are not
able
to work a meet, a donation of $100.00 can be made to help
off-set
expenses to the Club. You are expected donate food for the
hospitality/and or snack bar provided at our meets.
3. Any other fundraisers deemed necessary to help support the Team.
