Fundraising
We now have more exciting
opportunities to raise money for the club!
I: Spring Veggies and
Flowers Mega-Sales Event!

the flyer.
Spring is just around the corner and Coach Christina
and Sue Pettit have a new fundraiser for all the traveling squads. This
would be the 11-12, 13-15, & 16+ Squads.
The money from this fundraiser goes directly towards paying for
Chaperones (air/hotel) and Car Rentals. All traveling families split
these costs, so we are always looking for ways to decrease the cost for
each family.
Christina has graciously lent her greenhouse for us to
use to grow plants. We will be selling these spring veggies and flowers
to family and friends, and at Beaverton/Hillboro farmers markets. Also
at the Regional meet! Our goal is to successfully plant and care for
these little seedlings, and then sell them in 4" pots at $2 a pot.
May 2 Last UP POT to 4". One
more time to place plants in 4" pots to grow and sell in the next month.
WHAT DO WE NEED FROM YOU??
Stay tuned for a listing of the dates for the sales.

II: FUND RAISING WITHOUT
PRESSURE -- FORGET ABOUT SALLY FOSTER
Introducing a different kind of fundraiser -- the Service Exchange
Here's how it works: A
family would post a service they need to the club such as childcare.
Another club parent or athlete would volunteer for the job for an
agreed on price such as $10 hour. After the service had been provided,
the paying parents would get credit for the amount of money raised with
all money going to the team and the volunteer would get 10 points for
each hour worked. For example: if a couple wanted to go out on a Friday
evening from 5-10 pm, they would post this to the group, and a
volunteer would pick up the job. The couple would pay $50 to the team
and receive $50 credit towards their $500 fund raising obligation. The
volunteer would get 50 volunteer points. This could be used for any
desired service, such as yard work, housekeeping, car-washing, errand
running, etc. If either party desired to negotiate and trade their
points for dollars, mutually agreeable trades would be allowed. For
example, if a family already had enough volunteer points but needed
fund raising dollars, or visa versa, they can trade. Any person could
use our Service Exchange through a team member, by posting their
desired service and the referring team family would get credit for the
money raised, and the volunteer gets the points.
One stipulation to using this service: At least 100 volunteer points
must be acquired by volunteering at Meets throughout the year. If a
family meets its $500 obligation, any further funds raised would go
towards their daughter's team's travel expenses.
Four easy steps to make it happen:
1. If you need something done, email your wishes to email@thillssynchroclub.org
and fill out the PDF form.
2. Then, someone needing volunteer points volunteers to do it.
3. At the conclusion of the job, email the completed form to Sarah Gaby
at sarah@gabey.com
4. Write a check with the memo "Service Exchange" and
drop in the T-Hills mail slot, same as tuition fees.
