Dinner Dance

Just a quick note about the way we pay for the soccer team's expenses. You all paid $400 to register your child with Wayne Soccer Club. Out of that money comes expenses like field permits, referee fees, tournament reimbursement and training costs. Unfortunately, this will not cover everything. So the club hosts a few events to try to raise money. They have sponsorship on the website but their big fundraiser every year is the dinner-dance.

We have a certain expectation placed on us to support this fundraiser. We must fill at least one table with parents from our team and sell two books of raffle tickets per child. More is better. If we don't do this, we need to reimburse the club from the funds we raised with our $400 per child. Any more money we raise goes into our fund. 

Because I have no help, I am using our trainers to cover game day coaching as well as two training sessions per week. This costs money. I can tell you that I will be asking for more money in the spring to cover the shortfall. There will be less shortfall if we all go to the dinner. So please buy a ticket to the dinner and join Kathy and I for a fun evening. I'd like to take the opportunity to chat with you all about how the team is doing and what direction I want to take them. I'll also listen to any advice you have. So come on out and deal with Josephine Sirni on getting tickets and selling raffle tickets.

Thanks,

Bruce
