Team Fund Raising
Your team size and equipment costs are the basis for determining the "team contribution" required to meet your operating expenses for the season. Using that formula, the board determines annually, the contribution that the team needs to make toward operating expenses for that season. Each year, the team is required to contribute funds according to that schedule. This is the contribution schedule for 2017-2018 athletic teams.
That figure does not fully meet the operating needs of your team, but is a contribution toward the financial resources required. The remainder of funds needed to field and equip your team are provided by the general fund.....supported by #1-#6 in the list above.....including CONCESSIONS....Yes, concessions work toward the operating expenses of ALL teams collectively.
How does the individual team meet their expected annual contribution?
- Corporate Sponsorships
- Booster Memberships
- Team Fund Raisers

Booster Membership
Membership is $10 per student and $10 per adult. Every membership you collect from your team goes directly to YOUR TEAM account....(if you have 25 athletes, with student membership and one parent, that is $500 toward your operating expenses immediately!)
TEAM PARENT: Send me a copy of your roster, and I will check the status of their membership. I will send you back an email with a list of students/families on your team who have not participated in membership and you can followup with them directly, with a reminder of what those fees ($20) support...see chart above for reference. Use the link to Membership Form below, to print and distribute. Currently we are not taking membership applications and fees online. Leave forms and payment in an envelope in the front office Athletic Booster Box.

Team Clinics/Camps
When your team hosts a clinic or camp, all proceeds go directly to your program. Because they are held on school campus, the Booster insurance plan covers liability, coaches and athletes provide the instruction, and marketing can be done through the school website, social media, and other avenues without cost. Some teams have chosen to provide t-shirts to clinic participants, and that comes from proceeds, but likely worth the cost when purchased at minimal fee through Ads and Art T-shirt screening/printing. Typical participant fee for a three evening clinic: $60 for 2hr sessions, and $50 for 1.5hr sessions.
These clinics/camps are typically open to students in the 3-8th grade range. |

Snap raise
Snap Raise is fundraising platform that is done online. The HHS Snap Raise rep will handle everything with the coach and/or parent rep to get your fundraising campaign started. The Snap Raise rep will take a 30 second video of the team that resides on your team’s Snap Raise site. Each athlete enters 20 email addresses which will receive a message and link asking the recipient to donate to the fundraiser.
This site can also be shared on social media. Campaigns last 30 days. Several teams at HHS have been very successful with Snap Raise. For more information, contact Justin Parsons our HHS Snap Raise rep at his contact info below.
