The Buckeye Swim Club Boosters

The booster club is an integral part of the BKHY.  By fundraising the boosters are able to help provide the swimmers with much needed pool time, awards and many social activities, including the season ending banquet.  Each family is encouraged to become a member of the booster club and contribute towards fundraising.  Fortunately, all families will be able to participate in fundraising in order to help keep our club strong and (if so desired) reduce their meet fees.  Both programs are outlined below:  

Fundraising

Back this year, those who participate in our scrip program will have their meet fees reduced by the monthly revenue that they generate.   Scrip is a program where local and national retailers give us discounts in exchange for buying their gift certificates.  Thus by pre-purchasing for your everyday spending you can bring a profit to the club and save money on your training fees.  Most of our participants are able to raise $25-50 each month.  Interested participants should contact coach Laurie Karr for more details.

SCRIP ORDER FORM (Microsoft Excel Spreadsheet)

KROGER'S scrip program:
We purchase scrip for Kroger's directly through Kroger's. Their program runs slightly differently than the scrip that we purchase through the Great Lakes Scrip center. With Kroger's gift cards you keep the card after you use up your initial amount. Reload the card at your local Kroger's customer service counter before you shop. Every 4 weeks we receive a statement that tracks your reloads. These reloads are then credited to your account.

Cell Phone Recycling
Recycling your and your companies cell phones is not only good for the environment but alos helps raise a little cash for the team! For more detailed information, please check the cell ohone recycle page (link)

Swim Meets

myEZdeal.com is a social marketing website.  They bring hundreds of new customers to local businesses by getting these businesses to offer maximum discounts on the things we all eat, do, and buy everyday.

Not only are they promoting local business, but they are providing a valuable service to our community through group buying power.  The discounts offered will be 50-90% off of the usual cost of the attraction, service or product because of the number of deals that will be purchased in one day.

So, how does this help our organization?  Very Simply!  By registering and receiving myEZdeal.com’s Deal of the Day, you will know what products and services are being offered at deep discounts.  Then, when you see a Deal of the Day you like, purchase it and 5% of myEZdeal.com’s net profit will be returned to the Buckeye Swim Club Boosters.  This program lasts day after day, month after month.  We will continually receive the donation every month, all year round.  That is how simple this program is!

There is no fee to sign up and absolutely never any obligation to purchase anything.  But, every time you make a purchase, our organization will benefit.

We are very excited about this partnership and we think you are going to love the savings you will receive all over Central Ohio!
