Fund Raising Policy The expense of providing quality equipment and facilities for the enjoyment and safety of our participants is substantial. Registration fees provide only a part of the funding necessary to cover our day to day operating expenses. We have attempted to maintain our fees at a constant rate from year to year. As a result we depend heavily on funds obtained from other sources such as local Business & Corporate sponsorships, as well as conducting fund raising activities during the year.
Non-Participation Policy All Families will be required to provide a $75 Non-Participation Deposit (NPD) ($50 for Flag Players). Your child’s equipment and uniform will not be distributed without this deposit. The NPD can be cash or check (please note that checks will be cashed). Upon completion of the items listed below, your deposit will be returned:
- Participate at one scheduled 'field day' to help prepare for the season and assist at the Snack Stand when scheduled (typically once per child).
- Parent participation in at least one of our volunteer positions listed on your Registration Form
- Return ALL equipment & uniforms on scheduled equipment return dates as set forth at the end of the season in good working condition
- Please Note - Uniforms MUST be clean or the NPD will not be returned
