FUNDRAISING/VOLUNTEER COMMITMENT BOND

Leduc Minor Softball relies on raffle ticket sales, tournaments and other fundraising activities to fulfill our fundraising budget. We rely on volunteers to ensure the season suns smoothly and is enjoyable for all players.

For EACH child registered with LMSA, we require a 2-credit volunteer commitment. Each credit is equal to 2 hours of volunteering.  Volunteer opportunities start at the beginning of May and are available until mid September.  If you fail to register for the required 4 hours per child, or you cancel last minute where LMSA is unable to find a replacement for your shift, a $200 fee will be added to your RAMP account & must be paid prior to future registration. 

Also, for EACH Child registered with LMSA Plus we require a fundraising commitment of $100 of raffle ticket sales.  The raffle is  completed within the first weeks of May.  If you do not complete your required fundraising commitment within the raffle period, the remainder will be added to your RAMP account. 

You are responsible to complete your Fundraising/Volunteer Commitments that you sign up for on SignUp.com (or as directed by the Volunteer Coordinator). If you fail to attend your selected Volunteer Commitments, the players registration account will be charged $400.
