What is the mandatory fundraising fee?
All players will be participating in fundraising. Each player will receive 5 raffle tickets at a cost of $5.00 each for a total of $25.00. This will be due at the time of registration.

The stubs will need to be completed and turned in before opening day to be entered in the drawing to win. If you register online, you will be charged the $25 as part of your registration process and then you will receive your raffle tickets in the mail. If you register in person, you will pay the $25 and receive your raffle tickets at that time.
