BW3 Fundraiser Ticket


Tent Fundraiser

Last season we lost both our tents--one finally broke and the other blew over and subsequently broke in several places (at the SWC Championship meet, no less). Both tents lasted us a long time.

This season, we've borrowed a 10' x 20' tent from the Avon Lake Boosters, which has served us well. However, last April, Coach Drabik sent a proposal to Boosters for two new 10' x 10' tents for our program. We heard back from Boosters this season, and they said they will cover the cost of the second tent if we can raise funds for the first tent. We would need to raise approximately $618.58 for one tent (it's a personalized maroon tent with 'AVON LAKE' on the sides of the canvas).

So...here's what we (and Mrs. Andes) have planned for this season:
  • We have a BW3 Fundraiser set up for WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 9th. I'll provide a JPG image (accompanying post) of the ticket to present if you decide to dine-in or carry-out from BW3 next Wednesday. We will also print out tickets to give to the kids at practice.
  • Mrs. Andes is also collecting donations for our new tent. If you would like to donate money through Mrs. Andes, she can be reached at (508) 981-4517 or at kathy.andes@icloud.com. Please contact her if you want to donate, she is setting a tentative deadline of Thursday, October 10th for donations. Thank you Mrs. Andes for your help!
  • I am setting up a Learwood Cross Country camp account through the Learwood Athletic Department. Coaches cannot handle money; rather, we will transfer all funds to our camp account via the Athletic Director.
  • Next summer we are planning on another fundraiser to help meet our goal. Thanks to everyone for helping us get this started!
