The Palatine Swim Team offers a
variety of ways for families to earn back 100% of their pre-paid
fundraising fees each season. There are also opportunities to
fundraise for the Team in general. In both cases, fundraising is
essential in helping to maintain the cost to athletes participating
on the Palatine Swim Team. Earn backs
for family/individual fundraising will be applied toward the next
season’s fundraising commitment. Excess “earned”
monies can be rolled over for one season. Use of earned monies
cannot exceed the fees paid the previous season. Detailed
information and order forms for various fundraising opportunities
will be available soon on the fundraising page of the Palatine Swim
Team at: www.ppdswim.org
Any ideas? I am always looking
for new ideas for fundraising and would love to hear your
ideas!
Laser Quest Gift
Certificates are available at the cost of $7 (an $8
value). Each certificate entitles the bearer to one Laser Quest
Mission game. Each gift certificate purchased earns back $1 to the
family’s fundraising account. Kids and adults alike enjoy the
Laser Quest experience, especially on bad weather days. They also
make great gifts. If you would like to purchase certificates,
please give me a “heads-up” to be sure that I have the
quantity you wish to purchase available.
Fannie May
Candy Bars
Everybody likes Chocolate Bars!!
Obviously, these are easy to
sell……….basically, a “buck a bar”.
Candy Bar sales return 45% of each dollar of sales to the family.
Candy bars are purchased from the Team for $52 per box of 52 bars.
Each box purchased earns back $23.40 towards your fundraising
commitment. To purchase boxes, just give me a call at
