Convention Update: Fundraising |
|
|
|
As we continue to gear up for a great 63rd WI State Square and Round Dance Convention in Rothschild, WI on Aug 5-7th 2022, we are starting our fundraisers to help raise some of the necessary funds.
What do we need the funds for?
Things like the special caller and the live music are not covered by the registration fees for the convention. These monies have to be raised separately each year. We have searched high and low and have found a few options for some great fundraising opportunities. And the best part is that these are not specific to square dancing so anyone can purchase - share with friends, neighbors, co-workers and family and help support the convention.
All fundraiser information is available with links to the websites on our Convention website under the fundraiser menu option. We will also have links in this email.
With your help, we know we can have a great 63rd WI State and Square Dance Convention!
Most of all, don’t forget to Register! Let’s keep those numbers climbing to fill the halls with FUN & FRIENDSHIP & DANCING!
See you Back on the Dance Floor Again!

We are now taking orders, through November 11th, for a Christmas wreaths fundraiser through Sherwood Forest Farms.
Sherwood Forest Farms evergreens are fresh from the Pacific Northwest and harvested by trimming trees that are farmed for commercial use. This trimming keeps the trees, evergreens and ecosystem in the area healthy. They do not use old growth trees, nor do they cut trees down. The evergreens are made of noble fir which only grows at a high altitude in the Cascade Mountains of the Pacific Northwest. This means the fresh Christmas wreaths, centerpieces, and other holiday evergreens you are getting are hearty, exceptionally beautiful, and fragrant.
You can buy these products for yourself or to give as a gift. All orders will be delivered directly to the customer within 2 weeks of Thanksgiving.
The shipping cost is included in the price on all orders for Sherwood Forest Evergreen items. A portion of each sale will go towards the convention.

We will be running an ongoing fundraiser for the next year with “That’s My Pan!”. Cake pans, brownie pans, mugs, cutlery, cutting boards, etc.
You pick the design and wording (or go without a design) and it is ALL INCLUDED in the price. And best yet, a portion of the sale price goes to the convention.
Bring your pan to the next Square Dance Club potluck or to your next Family Reunion. Have one created special for that next great gift idea! With this program there are two different websites. One allows you to order and have shipped directly to you or friends and family. The other allows you to order as part of the group. Your product will be brought to a local dance and delivered to you there.
