FUNDRAISING Volunteer Form
Everyone
who has a boy or girl skating for the high school, including Weston girls, or
middle school is a member of the Wayland Hockey Association. The
WHA mission is to raise the funds necessary to maintain boys' and girls'
high school, middle school, and developmental programs in Wayland and Weston.
Ultimately, by fundraising, the cost of playing hockey is kept
affordable. As you are aware, hockey in Wayland and Weston is very popular at
every level.
We
also participate fully in our community though activities such as supporting the
Cam
Neely House
for cancer care, and the recent support for a local coach whose family is in
need.
Maintaining
a youth hockey program takes the efforts of many volunteers working together
for the benefit all children that want to follow their passion for hockey.
Our fundraising requires only a few hours of your time, and that is what we
want to emphasize. By working
together, with many volunteers we can raise the necessary funds and keep ice
hockey strong in Wayland without investing countless hours.
Here
are some annually scheduled fundraising events:
Annual
Raffle:
The
Annual Raffle is held in the fall. The
boys and girls set up tables and posters at Dunkin Donuts, Starbucks, and the
Wayland Deli, in Wayland and at the Omni Foods in Weston.
Here is how we can use your help:
·
We
need volunteers for two to three hours at each station.
·
Assist
the kids with organizing their tables.
·
Help
keep track of the cash collected.
The
boys and girls sell the tickets with your help.
That’s all the time that is required for this event.
Annual
Golf Tournament:
The
Annual Golf Tournament, with the Wayland Boosters, will be held in the fall. The tournament is
organized with the help of the Sandy Burr Country Club. Since the golf tournament has been held for many years, much of the
mailing and contact information is already assembled.
All mailings are taken care of in advance of the tournament.
Here is where we could use your help:
·
Volunteers
are needed to contact local Wayland and Weston businesses for contributions of
raffle items.
·
Sale
of tee sign advertising to businesses and other organizations.
·
Most
important to enlist golfers to play in the tournament.
·
On
the day of tournament we need help with registration and on the golf course
for the various skill events like the hole-in-one.
All
it takes is a few hours of your time to make phone calls and help make the
golf tournament a success!
Hockey
Game Programs
This
year we would like to combine the girls and boys hockey teams into one program
book which would be handed out at games.
In order to offset the cost of printing, sponsors are needed for
advertising in the program. Do
you know businesses that would like to sponsor our hockey programs?
If so, a few hours of your time can make our game program a success and
provide low cost advertising for our sponsors.
Hundreds of these programs are read, not only by Wayland and Weston
parents, but by others attending the games.
This is very effective sponsor advertising!
Many of us patronize local businesses and we appreciate their support.
Alummi
Outreach
Submit
Articles/Pictures to Newspapers and for Internet Website
Writing
an article or taking a picture for the Town Crier, Wayland eNews, and for this
website
keeps our boys and girls team’s efforts in front of the community.
Community
Service
We
have adopted the Cam Neely house for our community service projects.
If you can bake for a bake sale or help collect household items to
contribute to the Neely House it would go a long way to assist a very worthy
cause. Details on the Neely House can be found at www.camneelyfoundation.com/neelyhouse/index.php
As
you have read, we are not asking for many hours of time, just a few hours to
help make our fundraising and other goals successful.
We need your help!
Please
review the attached form and contact any board member if you have any
questions;
please volunteer!
Thank
you.
