Budget News

At the March 23 parent meeting, Rohan Phillips presented parents with a projected cost per player for the 2009-2010 season.  He indicated that active fundraising would be necessary to keep fees similar to where they were this past year. We need every family’s help to keep costs down next year. Please see our ICH website www.iowacitycoralvillehockey.com to review committee descriptions and e-mail Volunteer Coordinator, Tina Riggan, tina.riggan@iowacityhockey.org to let her know which committee you would like to join ASAP.

Fundraising News

The Fundraising Committee is going to be focusing on getting business sponsorships for the next 2-3 months. We are asking each family to submit 3 contacts. The contacts can be any area business owner with whom you have a personal relationship or any local business that you feel might be willing to support our organization. Please e-mail marla.edwards@iowacityhockey.org for more information or to supply names of contacts.

ICH Marketing in Area Schools

After speaking with ICCSD Superintendent Lane Plugge last year, we learned that ICH is not able to directly distribute flyers to all students through the schools, however other forms of marketing may be allowed. Each principal decides what information can be distributed through the school. Last year Weber Elementary had a table with ICH brochures at the Back to School Ice Cream Social. There is also a brochure and business card posted on the community bulletin board in the school. Some schools are willing to mention ICH in their newsletter. As a growing organization, it is important to get the word out to as many families as possible. Please talk to your child’s principal and find out what your school is willing to do. You can contact kaylemckay@iowacityhockey.org for marketing materials.
