Team Captains are organizers and cheerleaders in one!
The Team Captain will:
Step 1: ORGANIZE A TEAM OF FIVE PEOPLE (which includes yourself). Recruit four other people to build your team (friends, family, co-workers, etc.). They do not have to be bowlers or have any previous bowling experience.
Step 2: COLLECT $10 FROM EACH BOWLER to secure their spot. Send the registration fees to:
Chrysalis
Attn: Bowlathon
PO Box 7494
Boise, ID 83707
Step 3: TEAM CAPTAINS WILL RECEIVE information sheets for each team member (feel free to make more copies).
- You will instruct your team members to canvas their network of friends, family, neighborhood, etc. to collect donations (donations are a flat fee, not a per pin amount). Each team member's goal is to collect a minimum of $50 per person (but don't stop there!).
- Encourage your team members that if they ask for $10 from 10 people, they will have raised $100 for Chrysalis!
- Tax receipts will be available upon request.
Step 4: REGISTER YOUR TEAM at www.bowlathon.net. At this website you will be able to keep track of your team members and donated money.
- Choose a team name – the lane will be reserved under whatever name you decide upon. Be creative, wild, or conventional – the choice is yours! And if you want to come up with a team theme costume, go for it!
- You can direct donations to the website where sponsors can pay with a credit card and apply the donation on behalf of an individual bowler or team.
Step 5: DONATIONS PAID WITH A CHECK must be made payable to "Chrysalis" and mailed by October 9, 2011 to:
Chrysalis
PO Box 7494
Boise, ID 83707
Step 6: REMIND YOUR TEAM TO SHOW UP AT MERIDIAN LANES ON OCTOBER 29, 2011 from 2-5pm > Call your team members prior to the event and arrange to meet them 15-30 minutes before the event begins.
Step 7: PREPARE YOUR TEAM - Lead your team members to check in, get their shoes, and find your lane. Put on your shoes, pick out a bowling ball, and HAVE A BLAST!
Your job is done and WE THANK YOU!!! |
