Fall & Winter Short course and Spring & Summer
Long Course Season
We welcome new swimmers throughout the course of the
year. A new swimmer may join at any time. We are a year round swim
team and have a winter/short course season and a summer/long course
season.
To join the team,
all swimmers must pay a registration fee (which includes your
USA Swimming fee) and their monthly dues.
In addition
to swim fees, all swim families are required to participate in our
team fundraising events. Minimum family fundraising levels must be
raised by each family.
The team also has a limited number of
financial scholarships for qualifying individuals. Please request
information regarding the qualifying criteria from Kim
Collett, GregKim2@hargray.com.
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. To facilitate the
desires 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. This year our
major fundraising events will be the H2A Swim Marathon,
Sally Foster, Elk’s Club Spaghetti Dinner, and Birdies for
Charity.
Our goal is to provide the team with necessary monies to
meet our budgetary needs meanwhile keeping our family participation
requirements reasonable. Because our annual swim dues do not equal
our annual expenses, we must supplement team swim dues with
fundraising monies. The fundraising monies help pay for pool lane
rental, team equipment, a portion of our coaches’ s salaries
and meet travel expenses, all administrative costs and money being
set aside for a new pool. There is so much we can do for our
swimmers by fundraising.
Family fundraising minimums are stated below. These
minimums do not add up to the $30,000 we are required to raise this
year. We need all of you to go above and beyond so that a spring
fundraiser will not be required. We will provide ways in which you
can achieve your family minimum financial
requirements.
In addition to
the Swim Marathon and Sally Foster Gift Wrap, we invite families to
meet their family minimum by signing on a Team Corporate Sponsor.
We have 5 corporate sponsor levels. Sponsorship forms are available
by Clicking Here.
Donation forms which include our 501c3 tax identification number

Family Fundraising Minimum
Levels
The amount of each family’s assigned minimum
fundraising commitment is dependent upon which 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 after each fundraising event. All
payments for fundraisers are TAX
DEDUCTIBLE.
Family
Fundraising Minimums
We encourage all of our families to participate in our
fundraising events because they help build team camaraderie and
swimmer bonding. This swim team is your team. Each family has
the entire Season (until July 30th) to satisfy these
minimums.
