EMBA launches unique fundraising campaign
Facing a tough year ahead
minor ball has a new idea
with Iotg of incentives
By Fred Groves
T -A staff
EXETER - A chance for players to win a moun-
tain bike and piece of mind for mom and dad when
it comes to minor baseball fundraising.
Sunday afternoon Exeter Minor Baseball Associa-
tion held a sparsely attended meeting and the num-
ber one issue on the agenda was fundraising, more
specifically how to get out of nearly $2,700 in debt i
and build up a bit of capital for the future.
Under the direction of fundraising chairman
Diane Hartman, EMBA Will be having a campaign
that will be quick, have a lot of incentives for both
parents and players and could raise up to $8,000.
"It's a new approach to fundraising and new to mi-
nor ball. We're in trouble, its been going on too
long," said Diane Hartman.
The goals of the campaign are to keep the costs of
registration down, contribute to the cost of lighting
on the new ball diamond and to increase the amount
of money available for tournament entry fees.
Universal Fundraising Group is the company of
which EMBA is getting a booklet form program go-
ing. The booklet is based on the same method of
pay -what -you -pull but this one is pay -what -you -
scratch.
"It's going to be a quick money maker with early
bird draws. We play to launch this by April 1," said
Diane Hartman.
Any player who sells 100 percent of the booklet
within two weeks will be eligible for an early bird
draw which is free registration for a year. Grand
prizes include a mountain' bike, baseball glove and
ball and in-line skates.
"We thought a lot about bake sales and barbecues
but we need a lump sum and we need it now," said
Diane Hartman.
The first player on each team to complete a book-
let receives a Blue Jays T-shirt, batting glove and
ball. The secondtayer receives a KFC gift certif-
icate and each player to complete a book and return
$100 in donations re-
ceives a T-shirt.
The pay -what -you -
scratch campaign will
range from free to $2
and go in 25 centin-
crements.
At Sunday's meet-
ing, there were some
questions concerning how to get parents involved in
the easy fundraising campaign. Different local
sporting organizations have different methods of
coming up with the much needed dollars to keep
things running and EMBA acting president Gary
Hartman hopes this will be a good moneymaker.
"We don't want this to be a coaches' re -
"We need a
lump sum
and we need it
now."
sponsibility. We want the parents to get involved,"
said Gary Hartman.
Exeter has had to increase its registration fee for
the upcoming season and this is another way of
bringing in some additional funds. In comparison,
based on the same number of participants, EMBA
could make up to $4,800 additional through the in-
creased registration.
Prior to Sunday's meeting, over 200 letters out-
lying the EMBA plans for the future were sent out.
There were only about 15 people at the meeting.
"We sent out over 200 and it's a little dis-
appointing but we'll work with what we've got,"
said Gary Hartman.
Just a reminder that EMBA will be holding its
registrations on Saturday from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. and
on March 15 from 7 p.m. to 9 p.m. at the South Hu-
ron Recreation Centre.

nor Baseball Association this year can contact 235-
