Reply to "Fund Raising"

Our high school softball and baseball programs made so much money off summer camps and clinics it was all the fundraising that was required. The players had to volunteer.

The baseball team had a program that was nothing but the roster and ads. No one bought it. The coach said it would be nice if everyone bought a $100 quarter page ad. It subsidized a package of two practice tees, two game tees and a game pullover.

I did one raffle for my travel team. Most of the parents bought the tickets. They requested to just charge more for the team the next season.

I never considered donating to the college program. It went into a general sports fund. There were plenty of five to seven figure donors. I wasn’t going to be one of them.
