Camps

[Rich]

Our association ran a camp this weekend.

The team fees sure as hell didn't come to us -- they went to the host school. We simply took over the assigning function for officials he'd have to hire and pay. We also gave him a discount on the game fees he'd pay for letting us have our camp.

So we took in $75 per camper and received $120/hour in game fees (for 7 hours). That's less than $2500.

From that money, we fed people, provided water, gave everyone a camp shirt or something like that, and gave the clinicians association long-sleeved pullovers. It was a two day clinic, so there was a pizza social last night, too. What's left (I'm sure it's less than $1000) is a fundraiser for our association.

I was a clinician for 7 hours straight. My pay? A long-sleeve pullover. And a 6" Subway sub and a few bottles of water. And the ability to help people and maybe hire a few of them for my HS conference.
