Funding
Ideas for Team Programs
If
your budget is a concern, here are a variety of creative ways
to help fund Dean's programs for your school or team. See which
might work best for you. There are many creative options not
listed here. If you have an idea - drop Dean
a line.
Business
and Service Club Sponsorships - You can partner with a local
business or service club to sponsor all or part of Dean's programs
for your school or team. Many businesses and service organizations
find this a great way to give back to their communities.
Share
a Program with Another Team/School - You can also partner
with another team at your school or one nearby to share the
expenses. Dean offers multiple program discounts and a $300
discount when you refer him to other nearby schools, groups,
and businesses that result in a booking.
Open
Seminars in Your Community - You can host one of Dean's
programs in your community and invite area coaches and athletes
to attend for a nominal charge. Once you cover the fee and expenses,
any extra money goes to your program. Dean will even provide
you with promotional copy to develop your announcements, flyers
or advertisements.
Fundraising
Relay Race - Some schools opt for a higher profile team
and school promotional opportunity by putting on a team relay
race on their local track in conjunction with an educational
program. Entry fees in excess of the educational program fees
go directly to the team or school. This option is ideal for
track and cross-country teams.
Fundraising
Book Sales - Some clubs and schools sell Dean's books as
part of fundraising efforts. Both of Dean's books can be purchased
in bulk at discount prices and then all proceeds in excess of
the book cost go directly to the team or school. This option
is ideal for club, track and cross-country teams. Contact Dean
directly for bulk purchases.
