Each year, OSC tries to find fund raisers that will offer something for everyone. There are two types of
fund raisers. The first is a club fund raiser. This will earn money for our general club fund. This money is
essential to running our club. We are a non-profit club, but we still have operating expenses. Some items
that are purchased with this club-raised money are the binders everyone receives each year,
copies of forms to all families, our OSC website, and mailing of the
newsletters, as well as other things. Last year, club fund raisers included
the on-going Kroger Card Program, the Holiday Show and a booth at the
ISI competition in February.
Some fund raisers are individual fund raisers. These raise funds for
each skater that participates. The funds produced by these individual
fund raisers are Crystal Credits.
They are used to pay for team fees and also can be used to pay for travel
expenses. There have been skaters in the past that have paid all of their
skating fees with fund raising! That is why we offer so many fund raising opportunities. You can do
them all, or you can do none. It is up to you. The more you do, the less
you have to pay out of pocket. We know that team skating is expensive, and we encourage all to
try and participate in some form of fund raising! If you have any additional ideas,
or would like to help with fund raising, please contact Krista Short (klshort@cinci.rr.com),
or anyone else from the Fund Raising Committee (see list below).
We are also open to accepting sponsorships and donations. If
anyone is interested in supporting our teams this way, please contact
Krista Short (klshort@cinci.rr.com).
Fundraisers for the entire Club
Kroger Gift Cards: This is a great way to help the Club earn money towards general operating costs (e.g. copies, flyers, etc.).
It is very easy, just get a gift card from Krista Short, load it with cash or from a credit card, and use it to buy groceries at Kroger.
For more details contact Krista Short (klshort@cinci.rr.com) or download a flyer to
hand out to your friends and relatives.
Holiday Show: Sign up for participating in OSC's Annual Holiday Ice Extravaganza Fundraiser on Sunday, December 9 from 2:15 to 4:15 pm at the Goggin Ice Center. Bring your friends and family to watch the show, bid in the silent auction, or try to win the Split-the-Pot Raffle. Download the entry form or contact Terri Barr with your questions.
