Fundraising

There is a minimum commitment of three Fundraising activities during the swim season. Working one of these specific Fundraisers is worth one $100 cheque.  When each family participates in a volunteer or fundraising opportunity, a cheque is returned. Each family is required to participate in:

  • Swim-A-Thon – Date TBD – Usually March
  • Bottle Drive – October 19, 2024.  Families can also take bottles in any time prior to October 23, donate them to the Wahoos account at the Depot, and turn in their receipt for a minimum of $100 to the Fundraising Co-ordinator.
  • Raffle ticket sales – Tickets distributed November 8, 2024.  To be returned by December 16, 2024.  Draw date will be January 6, 2025.  In order to have your cheque returned it is necessary to sell $100 worth of tickets, but families (especially those with more than one swimmer) are encouraged to sell more.

Volunteer cheques can also be returned if families volunteer for:

  •      Raffle ticket sales – additional sales once ticket books are returned after December 16.
  •      Mini-meets or time trials
  •      Swim-a-thon – lap counting or setting up the pizza party
  •      Other agreed upon fundraising activities – vary by the season
