Annual Fundraisers & General Information
APS Board
Achieve Parent Sounding Board (APS Board) is our program’s booster organization. Fundraisers are designed for YOU! No one is required to participate in any fundraiser we offer. Funds typically go to gymnastics-related expenses, such as competition fees, practice leos, tuition and more.
APS Fundraising Accounts & Money
Throughout the year we provide fundraising opportunities for Achieve Gymnastics members through our Parent Boosters Club. The majority of our fundraisers benefit participants as well as the Boosters Program and participation is voluntary.
Various Fundraising Opportunities
We offer a variety of fundraisers at different times of the year. Here is a list of fundraisers that we have done in the past along with the general time of year that we did them.
Our annual Butter Braids fundraiser is typically around February. A portion of each Butter Braid sold goes back to your individual Fundraising Account. For more information, stop by the Front Desk.
We frequently run this fundraiser near the Holidays for their Poinsettia sale. Common items include poinsettia plants of different sizes and colors, wreaths, and gift cards.
We tend to run this in conjunction with our Annual Team Pictures. 50% of everything spent at Chipotle on our given day and time goes directly to our program. It is a great opportunity for us and the money we make benefits everyone in the gym!
King Sooper’s and Kohl’s Cards
We have King Sooper’s and Kohl’s gift cards available for purchase, year round, at the Front Desk. Kohl’s cards are available in $50 and $100 denominations, and King Sooper’s cards are available in $100 denominations. You receive a 3% rebate to your fundraising account from each card purchased.
