CHOP TEAM FUNDRAISING
Join our C.H.O.P. Team now!!!
⚾️ What IS the Braves CHOP TEAM? ⚾️
Braves Concessions are our biggest and most valuable fundraiser. For the 2019 season, we will be running The Market at Suntrust Park. This fundraising opportunity brings money into the Sprayberry Band Booster Association's General Fund and gives parents an opportunity to offset student fees. It's a great opportunity and we need you on board the CHOP TEAM!
CHOP (Concessions Help Our Program)
TEAM (Together Everyone Achieves More)
⚾️ What are the benefits of joining? ⚾️
This fundraising opportunity brings money into the SBBA General Fund so that the Sprayberry Band organization can operate at peak performance, giving our students the ABSOLUTE BEST EXPERIENCE!
For each game worked, a portion of the sales will be donated to SBBA. Some of the funds will be awarded as Fundraising Points (FPs) to those that volunteer. The remaining funds will be divided among the booster organizations participating for that game.
FPs are financial credits to your student's band account. You can knock those band fees out of the park even before the school year starts! Then start banking those points for next year's band fees!
It's that easy! For more details contact our Braves CHOP TEAM organizer.
(Current FPs are projected based off of expected earnings. These can be changed at any time as revenue falls below, meets or exceeds expectations)
⚾️ How do I join? ⚾️
To be a part of our Braves CHOP TEAM, follow these steps:
2. Sign up for a training class.
- You MUST email braves@sprayberryband.com to RSVP at least 24 hours in advance and have your 2020 beverage permit prior to attending a training session.
New Volunteer Training (SunTrust Park)
(more dates to be communicated soon)
For more information, please visit our website or contact the Braves CHOP TEAM.
