Hello Gator Families,
Hosting meets is a significant revenue generator for our club and helps us in several ways: offering competitive compensation to recruit and maintain our elite coaching staff, purchasing and updating high-performance training equipment, sending our coaching staff to national trainings, keeping our session fees reasonable and keeping incremental cost increases to a minimum.
We are looking to our membership to help us with identifying sponsorship opportunities for “Super Fast & Furious Swim Meet” within our local community. Whether it is your business, your employer, favorite place to eat, or your favorite salon, grocery store, gardening center, gym, or any other local business looking to make an impact in the community, please reach out to them all about being a sponsor. As a reminder, the Grosse Pointe Gators is a 501(c)(3) charitable organization, so all donations are tax deductible.
Each sponsorship helps us defray the costs incurred to run a successful home meet. While meet entry fee and admissions help us bring in revenue, we also have significant expenses in order to host a meet. We feed approximately 60 coaches, meet officials, and support staff 2 meals a day each day; we also maintain a stock of snacks and refreshments for refueling for those 60 individuals and our on-deck volunteers. We purchase all the ribbons, medals, and miscellaneous other office supplies and equipment in order to run our meets, and we pay for all of the officials and support staff that are required as a part of hosting a USA swimming sanctioned meet.
The attached flyer details out the sponsorship opportunities.
