<p><a href="https://bordercitystingrays.wordpress.com/about-us/">The Border City Stingrays </a>are a competitive and recreational synchronized swimming club in Canada’s border city of Lloydminster, Saskatchewan. For over 30 years, they have been pursuing excellence in the sport of synchronized swimming supporting youth aged 5 and up.</p>
<p>Synchronized swimming is a sport that incorporates dance, gymnastics, and swimming into a choreographed routine. The Border City Stingrays aims to provide athletes with the opportunity to achieve their full potential, including opportunities to travel.</p>
<p>Not only is swimming a benefit for health and fitness, but the club aims to help develop healthy friendships through teamwork and soft skills such as fun, work ethic, and passion.</p>
<p>In order to raise funds for their fall season, the Border City Stingrays partnered with TeamFund!</p>
<p><em>What better way to boost your funds than with grocery staples that families love!? </em></p></div>

<p>Border City Stingrays love the Fill Your Freezer for its variety of product options: bacon, burgers, steaks, chicken, easy appetizers, desserts, and more (including gluten-free, vegetarian, and vegan options).</p>
<p><strong>In their latest Fill Your Freezer Fundraiser, the Border City Stingrays raised over $9,500 to help offset the costs of their organization.</strong></p>
<p>This is their second Fill Your Freezer,<strong> bringing their all-time total to over $15,000</strong> to support their fundraising needs.</p>
<p>One volunteer excitedly shared that her parents won’t buy burgers anywhere else and stock up during the fundraiser to last them until the Spring!</p></div>

<p><a href="https://www.gomotionapp.com/team/cancsc/page/home" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Cascade Swim Club</a> is a year-round competitive swim club based in Calgary, Alberta. Their swim programs range from beginner to elite, helping their members improve their swimming skills and improve their success. From a fun way to keep up with your physical fitness to helping competitive athletes achieve their Olympic dreams, Cascade is a welcoming environment to all.</p>
<p>The non-profit club has been running for over 50 years, originating at the Acadia pool and now operating out of 4 pools in South Calgary. They aim to be a progressive, inclusive, and dynamic club leading the community with skill development and competitive experiences.</p>
<p>Not only does swimming help athletes keep up with physical fitness, but the sport of swimming also helps build character, instill confidence, and create lifelong friendships.</p>
<p>Swimming is a volunteer-heavy sport. It can take anywhere from 50 &#8211; 450 volunteers to run a swim meet, depending on the level of the athletes, so a strong parent community is a given!</p>
<h3>Offsetting <strong>Swim Membership Fees </strong>with Food Fundraising</h3>
<p>In order to help offset the cost of swimming, Cascade Swim runs <a href="https://www.gomotionapp.com/team/cancsc/page/201920-members/account-fundraising">several account fundraising initiatives </a>throughout the year like Purdys and Bingo, along with food fundraising. These efforts give members a chance to offset their membership fees and help the club earn money to support their programming.</p>
<p><em>What better way to boost your funds than with grocery staples that families are already purchasing at the grocery store!? </em></p>
<p>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!)</p>
<p>In a family-oriented sport like swim, this is a great way to get groceries and support your kids’ sports at the same time!</p></div>

<p><a href="https://www.gomotionapp.com/About.jsp?team=cancsc" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Cascade Swim Club</a> 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.</p>
<p>The club has been around for over 50 years and provides the community with inclusive skill development and competitive experiences.</p>
<p>In order to provide swim meet opportunities for youth, a lot of volunteers are required. It can take anywhere from 50 &#8211; 450 volunteers to run a swim meet, depending on the level of the athletes, so a strong parent community is a given! </p>
<h3>Fundraising Initiatives for <strong>Individual </strong><strong>Swim Accounts</strong></h3>
<p>In order to help offset the cost of swimming, Cascade Swim runs <a href="https://www.gomotionapp.com/team/cancsc/page/201920-members/account-fundraising">several account fundraising initiatives </a>throughout the year.</p>
<p>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!)</p>
<p><em>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!? </em></p>
<p><strong>In a family-oriented sport like swim, this is a great way to get groceries and support your kids’ sports at the same time!</strong></p></div>

				<div class="et_pb_text_inner"><h3>About <strong>University of Calgary Swim Club (UCSC)</strong></h3>
<p><a href="https://www.calgaryswimming.com/">The University of Calgary Swim Club</a> (UCSC) is a year-round competitive swim club that provides every member an opportunity to improve their swimming skills and achieve success from novice to international competitor. The club accepts swimmers as young as 6 and supports athletes all the way to Varsity and Olympic swimming!</p>
<p>We had the opportunity to speak to Jess, the current Club Manager, about their experience fundraising with TeamFund. Aside from organizing fundraisers, Jess is also responsible for swimmer and coach registration, arranging travel, and administration. She started helping the club with travel and events in 2016, and she took her current role in 2019.</p>
<p>Jess swam competitively growing up and loves the strong community that comes with swim clubs. Swimming is a big volunteer sport, with parents helping to officiate and run swim meets. Aside from a knack for organizing, Jess loves the opportunity to work with so many different types of people as Club Manager.</p>
<h3></h3>
<h3><strong>Keeping Swim Fees Affordable </strong>with Food Fundraising</h3>
<p>To offset some swimming costs, UCSC runs several large fundraisers throughout the year, like bingo and raffles, to help raise money for their programming.</p>
<p>One fundraiser they return to again and again is TeamFund food fundraisers, partnering with <a href="https://fundraisers.myteamfund.ca/p/packages/alberta/calgary-and-area/spolumbos">Spolumbos</a> and <a href="https://fundraisers.myteamfund.ca/p/packages/alberta/calgary-and-area/bow-river">Bow River Meats.  </a></p>
<p>UCSC has returned to TeamFund Fundraising twice a year for 3 years to raise money for swimmer accounts to keep swimming affordable. Jess learned about TeamFund when a new family from another swim club, <a href="https://teamfund.ca/calgary-winter-club-sea-lions-raise-almost-40k-for-their-booster-fund/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Calgary Winter Club</a>, joined UCSC and suggested a meat fundraiser. The vendor they had used was closed due to COVID-19, and in the process, they discovered TeamFund.</p>
<p>By partnering with TeamFund, UCSC families can stock their freezers with grocery staples while earning 20% back for their athletes.</p>
<p>The funds raised by swim families and their supporters go toward training travel, meet entry fees, or gear and equipment.</p>
<p>Families can share and shop the fundraising link online and pick up their delivery from the university parking lot on delivery day.</p></div>

<blockquote>

<p>Having a few consistent big fundraisers that they trust allows UCSC to plan ahead instead of jumping from small fundraiser to small fundraiser:</p>
<blockquote>
<p>“We have tried small fundraisers in the past, but they have flopped.”</p>
</blockquote>
<p>This fundraiser sticks around because <strong>the club can raise $5000 &#8211; $8000 per fundraising campaign consistently.</strong></p>
<p>Jess and UCSC club parents can trust that the fundraiser will be profitable and provide consistently delicious, high-quality products from local vendors.</p></div>

<p><a href="https://www.calgaryswimming.com/">The University of Calgary Swim Club</a> (UCSC) is a year-round competitive swim club serving Northwest Calgary.</p>
<p>We had the opportunity to speak to Jess, the current Club Manager, about their recent <a href="https://fundraisers.myteamfund.ca/p/packages/alberta/calgary-and-area/bow-river" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Bow River Meats</a> and <a href="https://fundraisers.myteamfund.ca/p/packages/alberta/calgary-and-area/spolumbos" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Spolumbo&#8217;s</a> fundraisers with TeamFund.</p>
<p>Jess loves organizing and getting to know all the different kinds of people in the club. Swimming relies greatly on parent volunteers, from officiating to running swim meets. </p>
<h3><strong>Keeping Swim Fees Affordable </strong>with Food Fundraising</h3>
<p>UCSC has returned to TeamFund Fundraising twice a year for 3 years to raise money for swimmer accounts to keep swimming affordable. </p>
<p>By partnering with TeamFund, UCSC families can stock their freezers with grocery staples while earning 20% back for their athletes.</p>
<p>The funds raised by swim families and their supporters go toward training travel, meet entry fees, or gear and equipment.</p>
<p>Families can share and shop the fundraising link online and pick up their delivery from the university parking lot on delivery day.</p></div>

<blockquote>
<p>“TeamFund is a great organization. Everyone we have worked with has been helpful and knowledgeable. We tried to do a Spolumbo’s fundraiser once on our own, but TeamFund makes it so much easier!”</p>
</blockquote>
<p>Jess loves how easy it is to manage everything online while still providing great results for families who are looking for ways to raise money to help with the cost of swimming.</p>

<p>Founded in 1961, the <a href="https://www.sealions.ca/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Calgary Winter Club Sea Lions</a> is one of the oldest swim clubs in Alberta. Over the years, their athletes have achieved success from local events to university-level and national competitions.</p>
<p>The Sea Lions provide swimming programs and competitive meets for youth aged 8 &#8211; 17. There can be up to 85 swimmers on a team. Beyond swim meets, the club hosts competitions and some teams travel for provincial and national championships.</p>
<p>At the heart of the club is values of discipline, commitment, and a competitive instinct that supports many aspects of the athletes’ lives. While swimming is an individual sport, the team atmosphere fosters the development of not only athletic skills but also valuable social skills.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3>The Sea Lions <strong>Boost Club Funds with Food Fundraising</strong></h3>
<p>In an effort to provide financial support to athletes and their families, the Calgary Winter Sea Lions have created a “booster fund.” The booster fund can go toward swim meet costs, equipment, as well as helping pay for social events (like their upcoming christmas party!).</p></div>

<p><strong></strong></p>
<p>We had the opportunity to speak with Sarah, the current fundraising coordinator for the Calgary Winter Club Sea Lions. Sarah has two kids in the Sea Lions and loves to volunteer and stay connected with the community.</p>
<p>This is Sarah’s third year as a swim parent, but her <strong>first year as fundraising coordinator.</strong> While the club runs smaller fundraisers throughout the year, TeamFund is a reliable fundraiser they return to again and again.</p>
<p>This was Sarah’s first TeamFund Fundraiser, and she <strong>loved how easy it was.</strong></p>
<blockquote>
<p>“Susan checked in often and was always available quickly to answer any questions. It’s an easy fundraiser to do and we had a good response from the parents.”</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><em><span style="font-weight: 400;">&#8211;<strong> Sarah, Calgary Winter Club Sea Lions Fundraising Coordinator. </strong></span></em></p>
</blockquote>
<p>Even as a new organizer, Calgary Winter Sea Lions was able to raise <strong>over $5000 this winter for their athletes with a pizza and meat fundraiser, </strong>combining Bow River Meats and Coco Brooks for a delicious variety.</p>
<p>Thanks to dedicated parent volunteers, the food was organized quickly on delivery day, and they posed for a snapshot:</p></div>

<p>Founded in 1961, the<span> </span><a href="https://www.sealions.ca/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Calgary Winter Club Sea Lions</a><span> </span>is one of the oldest swim clubs in Alberta! They have achieved success from local events to national competitions.</p>
<p>The swim club provides programming and competitive meets for youth aged 8-17. Beyond swim training and meets, the club hosts competitions and some teams travel for provincial and national championships!</p>
<p>At the heart of the club is values of discipline, commitment, and a competitive instinct that supports many aspects of the athletes’ lives. The team atmosphere encourages athletes to foster social skills even in an individual sport like swimming.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3>Calgary Winter Sea Lions <strong>Boost Club Budget with Meat Fundraiser </strong></h3>
<p>Since 2021, the Calgary Winter Club Sea Lions have used TeamFund to help top up what they call a &#8220;booster fund.&#8221;</p>
<p>The booster fund goes towards swim meet costs and equipment, as well as helping pay for social events (like their upcoming Christmas party!).</p>
<p>The club’s main fundraiser is TeamFund food fundraisers, which they have been running twice a year since 2021.</p></div>

<p>We had the opportunity to speak with Sarah, the current fundraising coordinator for the Calgary Winter Club Sea Lions. Sarah has two kids in the Sea Lions and loves to volunteer and stay connected with the community. </p>
<p>This is Sarah’s third year as a swim parent but her<span> </span><strong>first year as the club fundraising coordinator.</strong><span> </span>While they run smaller fundraisers throughout the year, TeamFund is a reliable fundraiser they return to again and again.</p>
<p>This was Sarah’s first TeamFund Fundraiser, and she<span> </span><strong>loved how easy it was.</strong></p>
<blockquote>
<p>“Susan checked in often and was always available quickly to answer any questions. It’s an easy fundraiser to do and we had a good response from the parents.”</p>

<p><a href="https://aquabelles.com/">Calgary Aquabelles</a> is an Artistic Swimming (Synchro) Club serving youth aged 7 &#8211; 18 that has been around for <strong>over 50 years! </strong></p>
<p>The club works to develop well-rounded and confident athletes in the sport of Artistic Swimming. They have produced several world-class athletes who are often at the top level of achievement in competition. Each swimmer is dedicated to doing their best with good sportsmanship.</p>
<p>Artistic Swimming is an Olympic sport combining the athleticism of swimming with the dynamics of gymnastics to create a choreographed routine in the water. Routines can be done either as a team, duet, or solo.</p>
<p>The sport focuses on endurance, power, speed, flexibility, and grace. Not only that, but the sport builds personal skills like respect, discipline and lifelong friendships. The Aquabelles offer 4 types of programs: Summer, Pre-Competitive, Classic Competitive (provincial), and National Competitive (national).</p>
<h3></h3>
<h3><strong>Keeping Swim Fees Affordable </strong>with Meat Fundraising</h3>
<p>Like many minor athletic organizations, the Aquabelles strive to keep their programming as affordable as possible. Throughout the year, the Aquabelles run several fundraisers to help offset the costs of training and competitions.</p>
<p>One fundraiser they return to year after year is what they call the <strong>“Meatfest.”</strong> This is a combination of the Bow River Meats and Spolumbo’s Fundraisers with TeamFund.</p>
<p>We had the opportunity to speak to Irene, Office Manager of the Aquabelles, who organizes the TeamFund fundraiser. Irene has worked with the Aquabelles for 13 years and her favourite part of the job of Office Manager is the opportunity to work with the families.</p>
<p>One of the biggest challenges with fundraising is keeping it fun and interesting for families. Families hate having to go to their friends every month asking them to buy something new. A food fundraiser has been a great option for the Aquabelles because it is <strong>practical and repeatable. </strong></p>
<p>Everyone needs to eat and our meat fundraisers allow families to buy food they may otherwise be purchasing at the grocery store!</p>
<h3></h3>
<h3>Aquabelles has raised over $30,000 since 2020 with Food!</h3>
<p>Since their first “MeatFest” in 2020, the Aquabelles have <strong>returned 2-3x per year</strong> to work with TeamFund. While the Aquabelles have tried many vendors with TeamFund, combining Bow River Meats and Spolumbo’s for practical meats for family freezers is their favourite.</p></div>

<p>This swim account credit can be used to help offset training and competition costs for their families and athletes.</p></div>

<p>If it were up to Irene, she would run every fundraiser through TeamFund! The Aquabelles have run 11 campaigns with TeamFund with no signs of stopping soon!</p>
<p>She loves that it is easy, not only as the organizer but for the families as well:</p>
<blockquote>
<p>“Our Club LOVES working with TeamFund!! Everything is so efficient &#8211; from the set-up to the wrap-up and our families love the process because it is also way less work for them. The support staff and the vendors are nothing but professional and they are all so great to deal with. We love TeamFund and always look forward to doing as much fundraising as we can with them!”</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>&#8211; <em><strong>Irene, Office Manager, Calgary Aquabelles </strong></em></p>
</blockquote>
<p>Since TeamFund is online, all they have to do is share their store link with supporters and meet up with the delivery truck and a few volunteers on delivery day.</p>
<p>The Aquabelles has an incredible community with athletes, parents, alumni, and community supporters going above and beyond to ensure the success of the club.</p>
<p>They say it best on their own website that<strong> “a successful club requires many hearts, heads, and hands.” </strong></p>
<p>They are always welcoming new athletes, so be sure to check out their <a href="http://www.aquabelles.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">website</a> and<a href="https://www.instagram.com/calgary_aquabelles" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> social media</a> for more information.</p>
<p>We are so happy for the Aquabelles and can’t wait to support them again soon!</p></div>

<p>The sport of artistic swimming focuses on endurance, power, speed, flexibility, and grace. Not only that, but the sport builds personal relationships and friendships that can last a lifetime. The Aquabelles offer 4 types of programs: Summer, Pre-Competitive, Classic Competitive (provincial), and National Competitive (national).</p>
<h3>Giving Back to Athletes with <strong>Meat Fundraising</strong></h3>
<p>Like many minor athletic organizations, the Aquabelles strive to keep their programming as affordable as possible.</p>
<p>Every year, the Aquabelles run what they call the <strong>&#8220;Meatfest.&#8221; </strong>Meatfest is the Aquabelles meat fundraiser that combines our vendors: Bow River Meats and Spolumbos.</p>
<p>We had the opportunity to speak to Irene, Office Manager of the Aquabelles, who organizes the TeamFund meat fundraiser.</p>
<p>One of the biggest challenges with fundraising is keeping it fun and interesting for families. Families hate having to go to their friends every month asking them to buy something new. A meat fundraiser has been a great option for the Aquabelles because it is <strong>practical and repeatable. </strong></p>
<p>Everyone needs to eat and our meat fundraisers allow families to buy food they may otherwise be purchasing at the grocery store (and usually for less!)</p>
<h3>Aquabelles raised <strong>almost $2500 with their annual Meat Fundraiser </strong></h3>
<p>While the Aquabelles have tried many vendors with TeamFund, combining Bow River Meats and Spolumbo’s for practical meats for family freezers is their favourite.</p></div>

<p>One of the great things about TeamFund is the ability to <strong>track profits per seller.</strong> This means that the Aquabelles are able to<strong> keep track of results per swimmer and credit their swimming accounts </strong>based on their performance in the fundraiser.</p>
<p>This swim account credit can be used to help offset training and competition costs for their families and athletes.</p></div>

<p>Irene loves how easy TeamFund Fundraising is &#8211; not only as the organizer, but for the families as well:</p>
<blockquote>
<p>“Our Club LOVES working with TeamFund!! Everything is so efficient &#8211; from the set-up to the wrap-up and our families love the process because it is also way less work for them. The support staff and the vendors are nothing but professional and they are all so great to deal with. We love TeamFund and always look forward to doing as much fundraising as we can with them!”</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>&#8211; <em><strong>Irene, Office Manager, Calgary Aquabelles </strong></em></p>
</blockquote>
<p>Since TeamFund is online, all they have to do is share their store link with supporters and meet up with the delivery truck and a few volunteers on delivery day.</p>
<p><strong>Since 2020, the club has raised over $30,000 with TeamFund, read their full story: </strong></p></div>

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;"><strong>Dive Calgary</strong> is the only competitive platform and springboard diving club in Calgary and has supported athletes since 1973. They have been around for so long that the building where they train, MNP Community &amp; Sports Centre, has undergone several name changes over the years! </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The Dive Calgary team is currently made up of 42 divers who train from September &#8211; June and attend competitions at the national and international levels from January to July. This includes attending the Nationals in Montreal and national competitions in Manitoba and British Columbia, and some of their athletes are even travelling internationally to the United Kingdom this year to compete. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Sports fundraising is key to being able to purchase new equipment, cover operating costs, and help youth to attend competitions both nationally and internationally. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Recently, Dive Calgary ran its first TeamFund Fundraiser to raise money for equipment like trampolines, dry boards, and a new diving space in the Seton neighborhood. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The </span><strong><a href="https://teamfund.ca/raise-more-with-a-fill-your-freezer-fundraiser/">Fill Your Freezer Fundraiser</a></strong><span style="font-weight: 400;"> allowed the team to sell over <strong>150 boxes</strong> of food: perogies, burgers, chicken, bacon, and more! </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">On delivery day, several excited volunteers came out to help organize and distribute boxes to the club’s supporters.</span></p></div>

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">We had an opportunity to chat with the current Team Manager, Ashley Buchanan, who shared that her favourite thing about her role is getting to make a positive impact in the lives of youth and teach them great lessons through the sport of diving. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Fundraising is a huge part of making minor sports accessible and we all had a laugh when someone exclaimed &#8220;any money is good!&#8221; </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Dive Calgary was excited to support their athletes with the Fill Your Freezer fundraiser and are looking forward to learning from their first fundraiser with TeamFund to have even greater success in their next fundraising campaign!</span></p>
<p><em><span style="font-weight: 400;">“We are thrilled with this fundraiser! It doesn’t require a lot of man power and we raised more than we expected This is our first fundraiser in a long time and we already can’t wait to return.” </span></em></p>

It’s truly a fundraiser that warms both the heart and the stomach. It’s also great for BBQ season when the sun is shining. </span></p>
