Updated: July 9 -- TEAM Training Dates posted below.  This is the training needed to work the Steeler Games this fall.  If you are trained for PNC Park and are working it this year, you do not need to go through TEAM Training again.  Please review the dates below and email fcafundraising@yahoo.com ASAP because the slots for each time are very limited.



GENERAL FUNDRAISING INFORMATION
All individual fundraisers (including details of item, profit percentage, delivery...) must be approved by Amy Signorella before being offered to FCA parents. She can be reached at fcafundraising@yahoo.com or text her call at 724.448.3350.

For all fundraising events, it is your responsibility to arrange your own rides/car pools. This is not the responsibility of the fundraising coordinators.

CLARIFICATION - Individuals are not permitted to conduct individual fundraisers under ANY NAME that implies in any way that funds are being raised for your child that is an allstar cheerleader at this gym to cover their expenses for this sport without following the standard approach for approval. This means that you cannot say that you are having a fundraiser for your 'GEMS Cheerleader' or any other name that is only an option because your daughter cheers for this gym. Please email fcafundraising@yahoo.com to get your fundraiser approved. Thanks!!

Effective immediately, all individual fundraising money must be turned in to Amy. You will write one check, payable to FCAPO for the full amount,  The FCAPO will make a check made payable to FCA for the amount that goes into your FCA account.  The FCAPO will keep 5% for the insurance portion. This will expedite things. This does not apply to PNC Park, Heinz Field or the Peterson. Those events can take up to six to eight weeks to show up in your account.

Please do not leave empty boxes at the gym from fundraisers. THANK YOU!

Food items must be picked up during the designated pick up time of each fundraiser. There is no refrigeration for storage at the gym. We will not be responsible for any items left at the gym.

Individual Fundraisers are optional and cheerleaders can pick and choose which ones in which they would like to participate. ALL individual fundraisers, unless instructed otherwise in the information for the specific fundraiser, must be turned in to the individual coordinating the fundraiser on one check payable to FCAPO.  Individuals submitting more than one check will have their multiple checks returned and a new single check will be required. Any information that is needed regarding an individual fundraiser should be directed to the individual coordinating that particular fundraiser.

Money will not be credited into your account until it is turned in by the person conducting the individual fundraiser.  Also, if individuals fail to submit funds on time or if checks are submitted that bounce, that will delay the amount of time it will take for funds to reach your account.  You can NOT count on using this ahead of time. You can only use money in your account once it is in there. Avon does not go into the account until at least 4 weeks from the date the orders are placed.

If you have information that needs to go on this page, please email cheering@comcast.net and flosgymnastics@zoominternet.net. However, please remember that the fundraiser must first have been approved by Amy. Thanks!

AVON
Coordinator: Lori Perschke 724 352-9228
If you are interested in participating in the Avon fundraising, you must sign up on the master sheet which will be located in the "AVON" mailbox OR call Lori at 724-352-9228.
Avon is resuming full swing with a few changes for this season -
There will be a few copies of the current Avon book, sales brochures and order books at the gym at all times. These will be marked as gym copies - please do not remove from the gym. If you want a book to take with you, please contact Lori Perschke.

The Avon books are not freely supplied by Avon - they have to be paid for - this year if you want to receive the bi-weekly books, you must pay for them. The cost is minimal and can be paid for by month or by the year.
Month - $1.00 (for two books per month)
Year - $10.00 (fo/r two books per month)

Please call Lori Perschke at 724-352-9228 to sign up to receive the books. You may also put a note and payment in the Avon mailbox advising that you want to order books - please include your name, the team name you are associated with and your phone number on all correspondence.

Profits will be between 15% and 30% on the average - dependent upon items. The 15% - 30% is your profit after the 5% is paid to the FCAPO as required.

Orders are due by 9:00 PM (after Rubies) on the designated campaign Sundays.

Delivery will be the week after the order is placed. I will be at the gym on Wed, Thursday and Sundays. I am willing to deliver most any day because I travel past the gym every day on my way home from work.

Campaign due dates are:

Call Lori Perschke at 724-352-9228 with any questions.
