NOMAD Booster NEWS
Dear Parents,
We would like to extend our sincere thanks to each of the families that have joined the NOMAD Booster Club for the 2009 - 2010 swim season! For those of you that have not yet joined, please consider supporting the NOMAD team via your Booster Club membership. As many of you are aware, NOMAD Booster Club is dedicated to providing for the health, education, and welfare of all NOMAD swimmers through a variety of services, including;
1. The purchase of a number of items for the day-to-day benefit of our swimmers: stretch cords for more advanced swimmers $26.95 EACH, pace clocks $140.00 - $249.00, replacement parts for pace clocks $10.00 - $50.00, exercise mats $15.95 EACH, stop watches/batteries used for home meets $13.00 - $18.00 EACH,
lap counters $32.00 EACH, etc.
2. NOMAD's Booster Club gives financial support for ongoing training of our coaches via swim workshops to maintain a high standard of excellence in our coaches. We already know our coaches are the best, though!
3. NOMAD hosts four to five swim meets per season. Funds from the Booster Club are used for producing heat sheets, feeding coaches and officials, supplying ribbons and/or trophies for swimmers, etc.
4. The NOMAD Booster Club also provides support to the NOMAD team via updated information posted on the www.nomadaquatic.com website. (Thank you, Jenny)
5. At the end of the “short course” season, the NOMAD Booster Club sponsors an end of year banquet for swimmers and their families.
6. The Booster Club provides annual scholarships for graduating NOMAD swimmers to help give them a financial “jump start” for college (1 or 2 scholarship recipients are selected by Coach Billings each year).
7. The Booster Club enhances the program by providing swimmers and family members with t-shirts, sweats, and other NOMAD merchandise to promote team spirit at very reasonable prices. Members of the NOMAD Boosters receive discounts on all merchandise and swim apparel.
These are just some of the ways in which your NOMAD Booster Club Membership works for the welfare of the entire team. Your monthly NOMAD bill covers only coaches' salaries, lane rental and insurance. The little money used to join the Booster Club goes a very long way. Thank you for your consideration and continued support! GO NOMAD!
Sincerely,
2009 - 2010 Board of Directors
