Concessions: Earn money to pay for Package, Synchro, High School team, etc!

CIFSC family members have the opportunity to work in the concession stand at the K. B. Willett Arena during Saturday and Tuesday Learn to Skate (LTS) and Saturday and Sunday Public Skate Sessions. Workers must be 16 years or older (skaters under 16 will be allowed to assist their parents during their shift but will not be paid). Workers are required to attend a 30-minute training session prior to working in the concession stand for the first time. Required training date: September 9 @ 5:00 p.m. (first Learn to Skate Tuesday class).

Sign-up for concessions will be online only. If interested in working concessions, please fill out this form ASAP.

I will send the concessions schedule next Wednesday, August 27 to those who have indicated interest on the Google form. That will give us over a week to sign up for the upcoming shifts. The first Learn to Skate session is Sept. 6.

Let me know if you have any questions and thanks in advance for helping with concessions!

New Social Media Coordinator / Raise Right Charges

Two quick things to know:

  1. We have a new social media coordinator – Jen Lindsey! She will post pictures to social media for CIFSC. Her e-mail is sportyjen32@hotmail.com.

    PLEASE share pictures with Jen so she can showcase all the amazing performances our skaters are competing around the state this competition season! Thank you, Jen!
  2. We have been alerted to a change in Raise Right. Orders that ship to the coordinator will cost a bit more effective Feb. 1:

    Effective February 1, 2024, the organization shipping rates for all UPS methods will be increasing. Unfortunately, we are unable to continue absorbing increased costs being passed on to us from UPS.  Here are the new shipping rates that will apply to organization orders starting on February 1:

    UPS Ground:
    • Current Rate: $10.50
    • New Rate: $11.00 (Effective 2/1/2024)

Concessions: Earn money to pay for package, synchro., etc.!

Hello CIFSC families!

Are you interested in helping work concessions during open skate and Learn to Skate? Earn money to pay for package, synchro, etc.!

Concessions shifts are a credit-earning opportunity that can be used to help pay for CIFSC costs and are credited monthly to your account.

We just received our shift schedule and our coordinator will be sending out the shift sign-up later this week.

New volunteers will be expected to attend a training during LTS on either Saturday September 9 or Tuesday the 12th. Experienced volunteers are also welcome to join us for a refresher. If these dates don’t work please let Liz know.

Skaters older than 12 are able to help in the concession stand and skaters over 16 are able to work on their own so long as they also attend the training.

Please email Liz Anderson at eanderson731@gmail.com by Monday the 4th if you’d like to work concessions this year.

Thank you,
CIFSC

Raise Right: Transaction Fee Increase

We wanted to let you know about an upcoming change to Raise Right fees. The following was sent to Raise Right members:

Effective January 9, 2023, the transaction fee for orders placed by participants using their bank account will increase from $0.15 to $0.29 per order so we can continue to enhance our gift card catalog and develop new features to grow your organization’s earnings. We have not adjusted this fee since 2011 and remain committed to keeping our fees as low as possible.
