FUNDRAISING

All participating athletes are required to participate in fundraising activities during the season in order to support the development of our sports program. These will include one or more of the following:

Sell cookbooks- $10 each

Current Catalog Holiday online
This is how it works.
1. Send a note or email to all your friends and family telling them that you are involved with Golden Acres Sports Program and would love them to help support the program.
2. Send the website- www.currentfun.com
Click on Start Shopping at the bottom right of the page.
As they shop, they can add things to their cart.
3. When they go to checkout, have them go to GEORGIA and then GOLDEN ACRES SPORTS
4. This is an ongoing fundraiser, so they can order throughout the year. All products will be delivered to their door. Current gives us a portion of everything sold.

It is important that we keep our fundraisers going-we use this money to pay for ICSGA fees, insurance, facilities, referees, equipment and our end of the season banquet. Without fundraising, we will not have the money to continue our program.

Kelly Parrish is coordinating our fundraising efforts this year. If you have any questions or ideas for fundraising, please contact her at csprfamily2000@yahoo.com

End of season Award's Banquet will be held on Thursday, April 23rd.Each player will receive awards for participation and a baseball pin.

Scheduling Information

We need to be sure to be on time for travel to our games. All our games are away this season, but we are playing double headers so that it cuts down on the number of times we have to travel. We will try to arrange carpools for many of the games, however, each parent is ultimately responsible to make sure their player arrives at the game on time. With only 9 players, we would have to forfeit if even one player doesn't arrive at the game.

 Times listed are for the beginning of the first game.

Tuesday, March 3rd     New Creation                    2:00 pm
Monday, March 9th        Mount Zion                        3:00 pm
Tuesday, March 17        Grace Baptist                   3:00 pm
Tuesday, March 24th     Heritage Christian           TBA
Tuesday, April 6th          Evangel Christian            TBA
Monday, April 13th                                                       4:30 pm  *Home Game*
Tuesday, April 21st        Cumberland Christian    4:00 pm

These are the games scheduled so far. Other games may be added to the schedule, so check back often.

Spring Sports Banquet is Thursday, April 23rd. More details to come.
