As a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, fundraising is a vital component of our program's - and thus our athletes' - success. Our registration fees partially cover insurance, field expenses, game day security, referees, EMTs and medic bags, concessions inventory, football equipment and helmet recertification, cheer choreography and music, and end-of-year gifts and celebrations...just to name a few.
In order to purchase additional items and equipment and fund other initiatives, it is imperative that we fundraise occasionally throughout the year to offset our out-of-pocket costs without having to raise registration too much.
Looking ahead to our 2026 season, we have several items/services that we are hoping to obtain:
- Rental fees for "home games" hosted at Montour High School football field, located at Thomas J. Birko Memorial Stadium ($5,400)
- New large Speedflex football helmets
- Reconditioning/repainting of 56 older helmets ($2,240) - Helmets are required to be reconditioned every two years for safety purposes for up to 10 years when they then expire
- New practice pants for 100+ football players ($2,000)
- Additional pompoms for new Comp Cheer squad
- The ability to have extra activities for the kids, such as our kick-off picnic, pizza parties, and end-of-the-season banquet
