This message will likely be our most important this season.
The 2022 cross country season is set to be stellar. Our athletes will get stronger and faster while they build long-lasting friendships, develop integrity, learn the value sportsmanship, increase self-discipline, and have fun!
How can these things be achieved? With your support, of course!
Our families are key to the success of our athletes. Whether you are dropping them off at practice, making healthy meals, cheering them on, or supporting our program financially, we can't do it without you.
The school district only funds three things for our program: coach stipends (three this year), transportation to league meets on school days, and travel to State CIF. That is it. Everything else requires financial support from our families.
Our goal this year is to have every family contribute, no matter the amount. Based on our budget, we are suggesting a donation of $150, however we understand that might not be doable for every family. Even if your family can only donate $25, it still makes a positive difference!
Here are some estimated expenses for the 2022 season:
Uniforms & Clothing 5,770
Race Registration Costs 2,900
Operations and Credit Card Fees 2,850
Travel 2,800
Awards, Patches & Trophies 2,150
End-of-Season Banquet (athletes) 2,150
Equipment and Supplies 1,600
Total $20,220
Donations are 100% tax deductible and can be made online by e-check or credit card.
Please be reassured no athlete will be turned away for failing to make a $150 donation and coaches do not have access to donor names.
That said, we are hopeful that we will reach our participation goal and meet our financial needs for the season. Participation benefits all athletes and any support is deeply appreciated. Thank you!
