Please reach out to Megan 570-592-7911 with any questions and we will work with you as much as possible.

FUNDRAISING REQUIREMENTS:

Based on parent and player feedback we are going to try a different approach to fundraising this season. We WILL not be selling discount cards this year. However, we hope we will have increased participation with fundraisers chosen��

Calendar Fundraiser:
Each player will receive a calendar for the month of September to get donations (each date represents the amount to donate). Players MUST sell a minimum of $100 to get credit, however any player who fills the calendar will be entered into a drawing for a $300 gift card of their choosing! Blast: This is a unique way to have friends, relatives and neighbors support the team and individual players by making a donation online and then being able to track the players and teams progress throughout the season with game and player updates!! (Coaching staff will be distributing information for this fundraiser)

Gerrity’s Bagging Fundraiser:
Coaches will have sign up sheets for players

Gatorade Donation – Each player will be required to donate 1 case (20oz bottles only) to the stand prior to the start of the season. Dates and times will be posted for drop off (Players will not receive full credit for fundraising if not completed)

Any player who prefers not to participate in fundraising can do a buyout option or obtain a business donation of $300 from a local business or website.
Please contact a board member for more information.
** You are still required to work the stand**
