We need to gauge where we are on the presales of our coupon books.  Have you finished selling your 20 books?  Do you want to sell more?  Please contact me and let me know your status by this Thursday, Aug 27th.  We are coming up on our next booster club meeting (Sept 3rd).  If you do not plan on selling your books, then they must be turned in by this date.  If you need more time, you will have a few more weeks to sell the books that you hold out.  The presales of this fund raiser ends on Sept 3rd. We must complete a reconciliation, deposit, and PO for the books that we plan to keep.  Don't forget to contact me this week.  Good luck on the completion of this fund raiser.

Thanks!

1. Enjoy the City coupon books: Sell for $20 each, we keep $10 from each book sold.
2. 20/20 Fundraiser: Players send requests letters to friends, family, dentists doctors, etc ..... asking for $20 from each.  This is $1 per mile pledge for the player to run 20 miles during conditioning this fall.

4. Sign Sale: Sell fence banners and small signs for the concession stand wall. Signs will sell for the following prices: Large Fence Banner $250 New $150 renewal: Signs $125 Renewal $100. We will also sell personalized softball shaped signs with players names and numbers to those booster members who wish to purchase them. They will hang on the fence in the outfield.

Each player is responsible for helping raise the money needed to run the program. There are 29 players and to reach our budget of almost $27,000 will require will require dedication from each family.

Here is the Breakdown for reaching our goal:

Seniors(5): $100 Family Membership fee + 500 from fundraising for a total of $600 per player.

Juniors, Sophomores and freshmen(24): $100 Family membership fee + $825 from fundraising for a total of $925 per player

Buyouts for fundraisers are as follows and are due when fundraiser are complete. Membership is due now. All fundraisers will be completed by the end of January so that we can enjoy the season without worrying about money.

Membership                $100                       20/20               $300

Coupon Books             $200                       Signs                $200

Media Guide               $125                       Total                $925

Even with this level of fundraising we will not meet our laid out budget needs, so we are encouraging all players put in extra effort in to make more the their required amount.
