We will offer another online store near the beginning of the season. We suggest placing any required needs in the first store to ensure delivery prior to the start of the season. As everything is based on available supply.
These required items may be purchased from any store you wish, we simply offer this as a convenience to our families
We will have sample sizes of required items available at the in-person event for your convenience.

***Volunteer Requirement***
The organization is built upon countless hours of volunteers!
A participant parent/guardian is required to fulfill a 4 hour shift requirement in the concession stand during the season
We understand parents/guardians have busy schedules and therefore this can be fulfilled in multiple ways:
~The parent/guardian can work the scheduled shift themselves
~Secure anyone 16 years or older/pay a person 16 years or older
~Secure a community service needed person 16 years or older
The health department requires anyone working to be minimally 16 years of age
Your team mom/manager will assist in scheduling your time slot during the year
We continue to thank everyone for the countless hours it takes to make the program a success!
