Fundraising is an integral part of the continuing success of the teams!
The wrestling program in Benicia is supported in part by the schools. The initial investment of a few wrestling mats, singlets and protective equipment was purchased by the schools. But there is more that must be purchased and paid for throughout each season. These things vary from entry fees to tournaments, additional wrestling mats (to hold quality tournaments) and any additional equipment needed to take our program to the next level.
What fundraisiers have we participated in? Well, we have held tournaments, run snack bars, had a charity poker tournament and held a fantastic Crab Feed in 2010. We intend to continue all of these events and add more to them in hopes that as our program grows and our wrestlers continue to grow to championship levels that we will have the ability to assist in part with some of the funding of overnight tournaments, out of state travel for those reaching the national competitions as well as to assist those who want to attend outside wrestling camps.
If you have an idea of a fundraising event that you have either participated in or helped organize and believe it could be beneficial to our programs we would appreciate you contacting us.
As our program continues to grow we have full intentions of incorporating and pursuing a 501.3(c) status so that those people and companies who wish to make a donation to the organization can do so and recieve the full benefit of getting that tax deduction. If you or someone you know is familiar with the process and is willing to donate your time and effort to help us acomplish this please contact us.
