Got a question for some of you seasoned TB parents. Got a call from the "team mom" if you want to call her that...anyways, she notified us that this weekend we're hosting a friendly & we have to donate $20/kid (both my girls are on this team) for snack bar supplies to sell during our friendly. Also, we have to donate some coffee & donuts as well. Oh & we have to work the snack bar as well for 3 hrs either Sat or Sun. This "fundraiser" is to purchase team equipment, helmets, bats, etc.
This caught me off guard since nothing was mentioned of this last Sun when we gone done play a 3 game friendly. Only thing mentioned ws we "may" play a friendly this weekend, nothing set in stone. We've been rained out so far this week, so we haven't had practice. This we just thrown at us about an hour ago. Question is, does this happen on a regular basis? Nothing was ever mentioned about having to do this stuff such as donate $$ & supplies & time for fundraising type events. This is the first time we've gone full time TB & it's not starting off too well. Just ranting cause it's kind of irritating not knowing week to week what's going on!!! We're about ready to jump ship....
