              Fundraising Program
The Swarm Player Fee Fundraising Program is designed to help Swarm players
raise funds to help offset the individual player’s club fees. Unlike most
organizations fundraising programs that raise money for the organization in
general, the Swarm's fundraising program tracks the profits from each player’s
fundraising activities and applies those profits to help offset that individual player’s
Swarm club fees for the 2010-11 club season. Players must sign a commitment to
the Swarm to be eligible to participate in the fundraising program.

Fundraiser - Belton Location

Pass out the flyers to your family and friends. If patrons show your flyer when

bags during the fundraiser.
Players - sign up to work!    Flyer
