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.

and swimmer bonding. This swim team is your
team.
