Takes a lot of money to do high school softball. We are playing 2 out of town tournaments, so hotels for 12 kids and their coaches, uniforms, travel money for the season games, hopefully the playoffs. Our fundraisers are the softball girls are running the concession stands during basketball season for the girls basketball games, we are selling one-liners on the softball banner i.e. "Go girls - all the way (from Granny and Pop)" type of thing for $20 a piece, each girl is asked to sell 10 of those, also of course the team spirit shirts. Tough for multi-sport kids, but thats life in the fast lane.
