Fundraisers


Noodles and Company, September 23, 2015: 
This is a fun kick-off team building event for our swimmers.  We like to have all family members and friends come out and support our team. This takes place on Parent-Teacher conference night, so spread the word!  The team receives 25% of meal sales for the evening if the customer mentions East High Swim Team.  

The team had continued success with this fundraiser, and raised $852.00 this year, $98 more than last year! It was great to see so much support for this first fundraiser of the year!  Not only did several other East High sports teams come to support our efforts, the Highland High swim team made an impressive showing as well! Fun to meet grandmas, grandpas, aunts and uncles.  It does take a village!  Special thanks to Karen Day for coordinating, organizing and spearheading this event! 

Paint the "E", September 26-28, 2015

For the second year in a row, we were able to come together as a team, show off our artistic talents, show our school spirit....and raise $400 ($100 more than last year)!  We hope to be invited to paint again next year!  Special thanks to Jodie and Carmine McDonald-Keller for coordinating, organizing and perfecting this "fun"draiser.

Pancake Breakfast/Silent Auction, October 3, 2015:
Our biggest fundraiser of the year - We raised $2,263 in breakfast sales and $2,839 for the silent auction for a grand total of $5,102, $520.50 more than we raised last year!  

Thanks to the pre-event ticket sales, we were able to raise several hundred dollars for breakfast sales over last year -- 28 swimmers pre-sold tickets, way to go!  The top three swimmers will get a "free" practice and some "vintage" East Swim team apparel.  The winners are: Maddie Day ($98 in ticket sales), Jack Swanson ($104 in ticket sales) and Cam Wright ($246 in ticket sales).  Thanks to EVERYONE who donated food, supplies, auction baskets and loads of time and effort to make this such a big success!   

Chipotle, November 4, 2015:
This was a successful final fundraiser of the season.  The team raised $1,381.41 this year, $103 more over last year.  The team received 50% of meal sales if the customer mentioned East High Swim Team. Considering the cold weather and the E. coli outbreak throughout the Northwest, we consider it a big win for our team!  Again, special thanks to Karen Day who did all of the legwork to make this possible.
