Meet Volunteers

Competitive Team Volunteer Information

There is a fundraising requirement for every swimmer in the competitive division of our team.  This amount is set to for the entire year and is designed to off set the deficit in our competitive team budget that remains after membership dues are collected.  The 2009 fundraising requirement is $575 for one child families, $725 for two child families and $850 for three (or more) child families.  This amount is pro-rated for new members joining the club based on your joining date.  Each family will be billed one quarter of their assessment end of each quarter with exception of the fourth quarter.  Fourth quarter assessments will be billed at the end of November instead of the end of December. 

This charge can be offset by volunteering to help us run our swim meets.  Volunteer sign-ups occur before each meet and volunteer positions are awarded points which represent dollars that are raised at the meet.  These points will automatically reduce your fundraising requirement by one dollar for each point earned.  Those who do not want to volunteer can simply pay the requirement and never be expected to volunteer at a swim meet.

It is very important to remember that without a substantial volunteer effort from your family it may not be possible to earn enough points to avoid paying some of the fundraising assessment each year.  However, those that are willing to put forth a substantial effort in volunteering at the majority of meets can certainly avoid the assessment altogether. It is our hope that this program will allow us to meet our budget needs while at the same time reducing the amount of "out of pocket" costs to our members.
