FAMILY FUNDRAISING MINIMUM COMMITMENTS

 

Over the years, it has become apparent that most families’ life styles are fully committed to work, children, school events and extracurricular activities. In order to provide a top-notch swim program, reward our experienced coaching staff with good wages, and, at the same time keep our monthly swim fees reasonable, we need to raise funds. The purchase of our timing system this past year will enable us the opportunity to host our own meets right here on Hilton Head.  This is a great fundraising opportunity for our team. Other fundraising events will include Swim Marathon , Sally Foster, Annual Raffle and Elks’s Spaghetti Dinner, Applebees Pancake Breakfast, and Birdies for Charity.
 

 

 

Our goal is to provide the team with necessary monies to meet budgetary needs meanwhile keeping family participation reasonable. Because our annual swim dues do not equal our annual expenses, we must supplement the swim dues with fundraising monies. The fundraising monies help pay for pool lane rental, team equipment, a portion of our coaches’ salaries, meet travel expenses, and all administrative costs.  There is so much we can do and more for our swimmers by fundraising.

 

Family fundraising minimums are stated below.  These minimums do not add up to the $46,000 we are required to raise this year.  We need all of you to go above and beyond. We will provide many ways in which you can help the team and also meet your fundraising minimum.

 

In addition to the fundraising events listed above, we invite families to sign on a Team Corporate Sponsor. We have 5 corporate sponsor levels. Sponsorship forms are included with the Marathon Package and are also available on line and in a folder on deck.

 

Family Fundraising Minimum Levels:

The amount of each family’s assigned minimum fundraising commitment is dependent upon what swim Group your highest-level swimmer is enrolled in at the beginning of the fundraising drive. If you do not raise your minimum, we will invoice you for the balance. All payments for fundraisers are TAX DEDUCTIBLE.
