WHY? 
The Wake County budget allows for $900 annually to support all athletic programs on our campus, with an additional allocation or contribution to coach salaries (stipends).  We currently support 40 athletic teams and approximately 500 athletes.  In the past, athletic boosters have:
  • purchased 3 buses to transport students
  • raised approximately $1 Million to support our student athletes
  • provided scholarship opportunities for our student athletes and Hooligans

WHAT do funds cover when raised annually?

HOW are those funds raised?

  4. Heritage HS Summer Sports Camps
  5. Season Pass ticket sales
  6. General tax deductible donations
  7. Booster Membership Fees

Team Fundraising

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.
Picture
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?
  1. Booster Memberships​
  2. Corporate Sponsorships
  3. Team Fundraisers

1. Booster Membership

Membership is $15 per family (includes one student).  Every membership you collect from your team goes directly to YOUR TEAM account.... if you have 20 athletes, that is $300 toward your operating expenses immediately!

TEAM PARENT:  Send me (huskyathleticboosterclub@gmail.com) 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 follow up with them directly, with a reminder of what those fees support...see chart above for reference.  Feel free to email out the link to purchase membership directly (button below).

2. Corporate ​Sponsorships

Current Sponsors
If you personally secure a corporate sponsor for Heritage Athletics, the team that your child plays on will receive credit for that sponsorship toward their annual contribution balance.  If you own a company, or have connections with companies in and outside of our area, they would benefit greatly in becoming sponsors for Husky Athletics.

Corporations sponsoring Heritage Athletics will benefit from daily advertising exposure to the Heritage High students, teachers, staff, families and friends, as well as the athletes and fans from visiting schools.  Our NAC VI conference includes local rivals Wake Forest, Rolesville, Knightdale, and Wakefield.  Since many of our fields are shared with Wake Forest Parks and Recreation department, they will also benefit from regular exposure to the Wake Forest and surrounding community as a whole.  
​
There are four tiers of sponsorship, and each include graduating levels of signage on the HHS campus grounds, in addition to graphic presentation on the school athletic program website, which recorded over 50,000 impressions this past year.  Please request a sponsorship packet using the link to the left, if you would like more details about pricing and specific offerings for each level of sponsorship. 

BEFORE SOLICITING SPONSORS
You will find to the linked above a complete list of our current sponsors.  We ask that you refer to that list prior to approaching a business owner, to be sure that they are not already sponsoring us, and/or their name does not appear on the 'Do Not Contact List'.  That list is comprised of companies who have been approached for sponsorship and for reasons unmentioned, they have declined the opportunity and should not be approached again.  We want to partner with our community, and not be an annoyance.

3. Team Clinics/Camps
 Temporarily suspended until COVID guidelines permit.

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.
HOW TO?
  1. Determine possible dates with coach
  2. Contact Coach Kennedy (A.D.) to request field/court/track space availability
  3. Confirm details of the event with the team coach and A.D.
  4. Contact Jonathan Cheng, computer design teacher at HHS, and graciously request availability of an intern to create a flyer for your event.  Submit details for camp/clinic and quality photos or images to be used in flyer creation (jcheng@wcpss.net)
  5. Contact Coach Scott Sloan with event details to post registration on the Husky Athletic website "Sports Camp" link, and be sure to include the completed flyer.
  6. Use the digital flyer to post on social media, local "Next-door Neighbor" sites, student and school twitter.  Coach Sloan will also post the flyer on the Athletic webpage.
  7. Please allow at least 2 months from beginning of planning process to hosting event.
  8. Some teams have also generated funds by offering food sales during the event.
