SPRING
CREW FUNDRAISERS
Parents and Rowers :
Welcome to the Burnt Hills
Rowing Association Spring Crew Season!!
Fundraising during
the crew seasons are no different than any other
sport or club. They are mandatory
and a great necessity to the team. Signing
up to participate in crew also means fundraising;
they are a package deal!
It is hard to imagine that
with our large beautiful boathouse that we would
need to fundraise. Unfortunately,
the proceeds for fundraising do not go toward the
boathouse, they are used for equipment purchases
and repairs. Due to successful fundraising
last year and this past fall season, we were able
to purchase a girls varsity 8, boys varsity 8 and
4 singles. This enables us to stay competitive
and keep our rowers safe. This in turn allows
the better used boats to be passed down through the
club and everyone wins! Due to our competitive
standings, we are now on the “map” and
are visited by college scouts.
Each season, like other
sports and clubs we require all rowers to participate
in 2 fundraisers. Our first one will be candy bar
sales. Each
rower will receive 2 boxes of Gertrude Hawke candy
bars of 48 bars each. The rowers will sell
the bars for $1/each. The payment is due at the time
of registration. The
rowers will receive their boxes at the end of March. Since
you paid for the candy up front, you will keep the
money when you sell the candy. You may choose to
do the buyout due at the time of registration for
$50.
The other spring fundraiser
is the spring plant sale. Rowers will receive
in the mail order forms to take orders. These
will go out in the beginning of April. Order
forms and money will be due at the end of April. Your
customers will pick up their own flower orders at
Pederick’s starting May 1 through the end of
May. The buyout for this fundraiser, due at
registration, is $100.
The club relies
on these fundraisers! Rowers
and their families work hard and it is not fair to
those who fundraise if you do not! Please work
as a team on the water and off and keep our club
safe and competitive!!
