Updated: Jan 31 -- PNC PARK
We need to know who is interested in working PNC Park this year.  In order to work PNC Park, you must commit to working a total of at least 10 games -- this includes opening day , 3 sky blast games and 6 other GAMES of your choice. 

PNC requires training on an annual basis.

In order to get trained to work PNC Park, you MUST be able to work the season opener which is a Monday game.  It is on Monday, April 5th -- the report time last year was 9 or 10 a.m.  Please understand this is NOT our rule and is a PNC requirement.

We do not have final payout amounts yet.  We will post that information as soon as that is available.

If you are interested in working PNC Park this year, please email fcafundraising@yahoo.com.


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.

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, one 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 quicker. This does not apply to PNC Park, Heinz Field or the Peterson. Those events can take up to six week 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. 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. 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!

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.


PETERSON EVENT CENTER
Coordinator -- Sue Slater (sueellen909@zoominternet.net) / Amy Signorella (fcafundraising@yahoo.com)

2009-10 Petersen Event Center Schedule

We run a Coaches Corner booth. Typically, this means we need 12 to 16 people per event.

Just a reminder that you must wear black or khaki pants when you work at the stand. ***Please no jeans*** Please wear a solid navy top if you have one.

Times listed are game times. Report time is generally 2 hours prior -- can be somewhat flexible on weekdays.
Women's basketball games have been added to the Petersen Event Center Schedule. Please contact Sue Slater or send an email to fcafundraising.com ASAP. Need to know if we have enough people for the stand to be open.
Saturday January 30
Sunday February 14
Saturday February 20 (all teams will be at Convention Center)

There is also 2 men's basketball games that were not put on list. Full year teams will be in Atlanta during that time. I need to know if we have enough people to man the stand.
Saturday Febuary 6
Monday February 8 (it's a late game so if you are getting in early enough from Atlanta, you might be able to do it)


HEINZ FIELD / PNC PARKCoordinator -- Melanie Pigott
Email: FCAFundraising@yahoo.com
We do concessions at Heinz Field and select PNC Park Events.

2009-10 Event Schedule -- email fcafundraising@yahoo.com to signup for events.

NOTE: All schedule requests and changes must be emailed to FCAFundraising@yahoo.com. If you send a text regarding it, you do so at your own risk!!

PARTICIPATION
We have been informed by Heinz Field that we may be limited in the number of people we can send to the Steeler Games. We will be informed game to game how many people we can take. It will never be less than 25. We have always been limited in the number we can send to Pitt Games.

In order to make this fair for everybody involved, here is how the process will work:
1. Anybody interested in working the game must be signed up at least 8 days prior to game day. Anybody signing up after that will go to the bottom of the list and will only be added IF we need people AND we can still add them based on Heinz Field deadlines.

2. If we have more than the number that Heinz Field will allow, we will eliminate people from games in the following manner:
A. All multiples from the same family will be eliminated first (no doubles).
B. Anybody that indicated by email that, if there were eliminations, this is the game they preferred to be eliminated will be removed.
C. Individuals will then be removed on a rotating basis, making it as fair as possible.

3. Late Wednesday Night the week of the game, a list of individuals that will be working the game that weekend will be posted. Please make sure you look to make sure your name is/is not on the list. If you show up and are not on the list, you will not be permitted to stay and work.


NOTES:
1. If you work the game with your husband, mother, father, wife, etc... and will not work it IF they are eliminated from the game because doubles are removed, you need to email FCAFundraising@yahoo.com and let us know so that we do not submit your name to Heinz Field as working the game. Once we submit the list, you are committed to working the game, regardless of who else has been eliminated. Therefore, make sure your intent is clear.

2. If you are scheduled for a game and do not show up, you will not be scheduled for any remaining football games.


REQUIRED TRAININGThere is training required to work at Steeler Games and Concerts. This is TEAM training and the classes for this year are complete. If any additional classes are offerred, they will be posted.

Training is not required to work at the Pitt Games.

TEAM Training Details (6:00 start time for all training dates listed):Participants will most likely be able to park in Green Lot 21 which is located on Reedsdale Ave. If this lot is full then parking can be found in the lots surrounding Heinz Field and there may be a fee. Please have everyone enter the building through Gate C (the game day entrance for fans). If the gate is not open there is a buzzer that once pushed will alert security that someone is there. Once they enter Heinz Field there will be someone and/or directions to the training location.


In order to attend ANY training classes, you must email FCAFundraising@yahoo.com and receive confirmation back from her. We are limited to how many individuals can be sent to any one training class. Individuals that show up at training without being pre-registered will not be able to attend.

UNIFORMS at PNC PARK and HEINZ FIELD
No CAPRIS at any events at either location. Failure to comply will result in not being able to participate in future opportunities.

Heinz Field Uniform: Khaki long pants – shirts and hats are provided by Aramark. ID is required when working events at the Stadium.

PNC Park Uniform: Black long pants and black shoes.


PROFITSVaries depending on the number of people we have and the amount of profits we have. . . Unless it is stated ahead of time, there is NO GUARANTEE of this being a certain amount. It varies based on sales and the attendance at the events. Please keep that in mind when deciding whether to participate.
