Exchange/Donation Program

Dear Wrestling Families,

Our program is growing, and to make it easier for more families to get
involved we would like to keep the initial investment of getting into
the sport of wrestling at a minimum. By the time a family pays to join
the club, buy new shoes, headgear and singlets, each child can cost over
$250 dollars.

Dan Stephens has offered to help me set up an exchange/donation program
for wrestling gear. We all have left over wrestling gear lying around
our houses that can be put to good use. We are looking for families to
donate their old gear (shoes, headgear, singlets) and we will sort and
store this equipment in the small room at Cherry Creek. This gear would
be available for all our wrestlers to exchange for another item, to
purchase at a minimal cost (we are thinking $5-$10 per item) or to be
donated to families in need. This is not intended to be a money maker,
any money collected will be donated to the club, but it is a way to help
all of us during these difficult economic times.

If you have equipment to donate, please drop off during youth signups
which are scheduled next week, 6-8 pm on Tuesday and Thursday (Dec. 7
and 9) or bring to any wrestling practice and give to Dan Stephens, Kim
Taylor or Kevin Taylor.

Thank you for your help in making the Lowell Wrestling program the best!
