Stang Gang Car Wash Fundraiser

Parking lot by Sonic on Vann Drive in The Columns

September 7, 2024
9am-1:30pm (First Shift Players arrive at 8:47am)

You have received and are expected to sell 10 tickets for $10 each regardless of whether you are able to work at the car wash.

You are expected to return your envelope with $100 cash/checks inside no later than at the car wash on 9/7.

If you do not sell all 10 tickets, return any unsold tickets and cash/checks for what you did sell. If you are unable to work at the car wash, let coach know and coordinate turning in your money with Mr. Putnam.

Don’t wait to start selling. Get started right away. This should be an easy fundraiser for you.

Remember it is ONLY because of fundraisers like this carwash that we can buy uniforms, baseballs, training aids, or possibly take a team trip. Don’t be the player that didn’t give it their all!

Questions may be directed to Kyle Putnam, Booster Club Treasurer (731) 217-1124

We will have our first field work day of Spring 2024 this Saturday 2/24/24 starting at 10am. This day will be spend cleaning up and preparing the field for the season. Here are the planned work activities:

1. Painting the bathroom interiors and all the blue doors and trim. Paint, roller covers, brushes and tray liners have been donated by Modern Woodmen. We need about 3 rollers with extension handles, and another paint tray.
2. General “yard” maintenance. Leaf/pine needle removal. Trim hedges and shrubs. Bring appropriate tools. Blowers, trimmers, rakes, yard saws, gloves, etc.
3. Field Edging. Bring muscles.
4. Build water runoff in front of third base dugout. Bring shovels or a trencher if you have one.
5. Secure protective net to backstop wall. Bring pliers, concrete drill.
6. Build surface for small batting cage. A tractor would be ideal.
7. Application of field conditioner and mound clay.
8. Pressure Washing of buildings. If someone had a high pressure washer to bring, we could clean the outside of the stand, as well as the steps. Its pretty bad right now.
9. Rebuild dugout fence. Hammers, drills, hole shovel.

The more the merrier, we need all hands on deck this year. Last year we didn’t have a work day. The one day planned was rained out. This year should be fair weather. We will also plan another date soon. So much work needs done that it cannot all be done in one day.

Its now time to start gathering business (and personal) sponsorships from our community. Our target is to start selling now and to be completed end of January. However, we will accept sponsorships and donations at any time during the season.

The preferred method is to push everyone to madisonmustangs.org/baseball and tell them to click on “Become a Sponsor”, especially if they want to use a card to make the payment. They can provide all the relevant information we need to be able to recognize them throughout the season. Please push using the website even for companies who want to pay by check. Checks are usually better for the larger amounts due to the bank fees for processing credit cards.

While everyone is encouraged to seek out sponsors for our program, we are happy to have Ashley Gerler (mother of freshman Gavan Thomas) volunteer to lead the charge. If you have a prospect you are unable to pursue yourself, please pass that name along to Ashley who will follow up. Ashley’s email is ashleygerler@gmail.com and her cell is 731-697-6384.

Here is a list of some of our needs and wants for the team and the facility:

Artificial Turf for our batting cages – 2@ $1200
Replace leaky mound/home plate tarps – $3000
Pitching Machine – $4000

New Rollup Windows for concession stand – $3000
New fencing behind home dugout – $1000?
