FUNDRAISERS Swim Team
The Swim Team expanded our fundraisers in 2009 and raised
over $4500! We did this primarily through our Sponsorship sales
and the OFE Swim Team Garage Sale.
We are using this money from last year once again to minimize any increases in swimmers fees and to fund coachs salaries. In addition we also gave generous donations to the Old Farm Pool Committee to purchase additional pool deck furniture. To date we have purchased 4 new tables with umbrellas, and all the new blue chaise lounge chairs and beach chairs that you will see when the pool opens this season.
In addition to your 4 meet duties, we are asking each parent to choose one of the following:
NON-Meet Work Duties for FUNDRAISING 5th work slot -
select one or more:
1.
Sell one Sponsorship Banner (see below)
2.
Work to set up and/or help run the Swim Team Garage Sale Sat 6/5 (see below)
3.
Donate 2 cases of soda or water, or one case of Gatorade (24 count or greater)
for concession stand sales
4.
Buy Out of $20.00
This year we will again sell sponsorships to local businesses who want to promote their services or to families who want to convey their well wishes to our teams during home meets.
For sponsors donating a minimum of $100, professional-quality banners will be created. The banners will be 2 x 4 ft., printed in one color (from hi-resolution PDF files provided by the advertiser) on weather-resistant vinyl. We will post the banners during the swim team season in a highly visible place. Hundreds of area families will see these ads during our home meets alone.
Sponsors donating a minimum of $250, will be recognized at the SILVER LEVEL. In addition to the banner, these sponsors will be featured as a full sponsor of our Trivia Night on Aug 28th, and be recognized as a Silver Sponsor on our Web Site. Sponsors donating a minimum of $500, will be recognized at the GOLD LEVEL. In addition to the SILVER level benefits, GOLD sponsors will have their banner posted in a premium location at the pool to get greater exposure and they will also be a full sponsor for our Swim Team Garage Sale on June 5th.
All ads purchased by May 27th will be hung by June 8th. For more information on sponsorships, please contact Chris Hester - dmhester@swbell.com or 314-249-0335.
Nancy Martin will be hosting the
garage sale and will coordinate all donations and volunteers,
