this is our 3rd year headed to state...and our 3rd year fundraising for state. i have to admit, this is NOT my favorite part, but it sure is necessary. think about it...12 families for at least 3 nights, possibly up to a week. that's a lot of money spent out of pocket! so, it really helps to raise some funds to help the families with expenses. so, the boys hit the pavement and do a little begging fundraising. we have found that one of the easiest money makers is to set up outside of a busy store and see if we can hit up the customers for a $1 here and there. it all adds up! and how can you resist these sweet faces!
this past sunday, after standing in the hot sun most of the day, the boys hit the field for a 2 hour practice. i felt like they deserved a treat, so we had an impromptu pizza party on the bleachers after practice. we've raised the funds, they've practiced their tails off...now it's time to go win a state tournament!!!
