About Cascades Swim Club
Cascade Swim Club is a year-round competitive swim club based in Calgary, Alberta. Their club welcomes athletes at all levels: from keeping the community safe with basic swim lessons to helping Olympic athletes achieve their dreams.
The club has been around for over 50 years and provides the community with inclusive skill development and competitive experiences.
In order to provide swim meet opportunities for youth, a lot of volunteers are required. It can take anywhere from 50 – 450 volunteers to run a swim meet, depending on the level of the athletes, so a strong parent community is a given!Â
Fundraising Initiatives for Individual Swim Accounts
In order to help offset the cost of swimming, Cascade Swim runs several account fundraising initiatives throughout the year.
Cascade’s newest fundraiser is the Fill Your Freezer, which has quickly become a favourite for their swim families. The Fill Your Freezer fundraiser gives members an opportunity to sell items to stock the freezer and earn an average of 20% back for the club (burgers, steaks, chicken, sausages, and more!)
What better way to raise money to fund your swim account than with grocery staples that families are likely already purchasing at the grocery store!?Â
In a family-oriented sport like swim, this is a great way to get groceries and support your kids’ sports at the same time!
This February, Cascade Swim Club raised over $3,200 for their athletes!Â
TeamFund tracks sales per swimmer so the club can divide the funds into individual swimmer accounts after their fundraiser is over.Â
Cascade returns 1-2x per year to stock up their freezers (and their athletes’ bank accounts!) for the ongoing costs of swim.Â
