Heart Plunge- Need Plunder/Donations

posted Feb 1, 2012 9:39 PM by PSC Admin [ updated Feb 14, 2012 6:53 PM ]

Just a reminder that the Heart Plunge is right around the corner on FEBRUARY 24, 2012. We need plunder (i.e. prizes) for this to be a successful fundraiser.

As of today we have NOT had a lot of items donated for the raffle prizes. The club is purchasing some of the larger ticket items like a Kindle Fire, and a Nintendo DSi...but we need YOUR HELP to gather other donations.

Do you run a small business (photography, massage therapists, etc.) that you can provide a gift card for? Do you frequent any local businesses that you can solicit to provide a gift certificate (such as a free meal, clothing, etc)?

We have had some great donations in the past that have made it easy for the kids to sell their raffle tickets. Anything helps & remember can be tax deductible as well.

Attached is our letter to use when soliciting donations. Please remind businesses that this goes to help a local non-profit and many of our parents and swimmers frequent the local businesses.

Ticket packets have been passed out & need to be returned to the pool by Friday, February 15th.

Heart Plunge - Friday February 24th

posted Feb 1, 2012 9:20 PM by PSC Admin [ updated Feb 2, 2012 10:56 AM ]

Dear Pirate Swim Club Parents,

It is time for our annual fundraiser the "Heart Plunge". We will be raising money for new equipment, additional coach training, and travel costs for our coaches. For anyone new to the club here are the details:

The fundraiser is scheduled for Friday, February 24, 2012 @ 5:30pm.

Each swimmer will be asked to sell $50.00 worth of tickets. Tickets are $1 each or 6 tickets for $5. Each ticket is worth one chance to win one of our great prizes.

These tickets will be enclosed in a packet that will be passed out at the pool on Monday and Tuesday January 9^th and 10^th. Parents – if you can plan on coming into the pool on one of these days to collect the packet – it would be helpful.

Each numbered ticket has 2 pieces: one for the purchaser to keep – and another for them to return to your child. This ticked needs to have the purchaser’s name and phone number on the back (there is a place of this). You child will then return the ticket stubs (with names and phone numbers on them) along with the collected money to the Swim Club by February 17^th. These tickets (yes, the actual tickets)will all be placed in a tumbler and will be drawn out for the prizes.

On the day of the Heart Plunge, we want all of our swimmers to be able to participate and there will be competitions appropriate for every ability level. Upon completion of each competition the winning swimmers will pull tickets for the prizes.

We are actively looking for generous sponsors who would be willing to donate items or services that can be used as prizes.

We currently have as grand prizes, a Kindle Fire, a flat screen TV, and a Nintendo DSi XL.

Many other prizes will be raffled off as well.

If you have family, friends, or neighbors who would be willing to donate please let any board member know.

The success of our fundraiser is directly linked to the prizes we are able to offer. Thanks for your support!
