Does your team charge a fee to join?

[jwallace15]

We charge $200 each year for every student on the team. That team member is also required to raise another $200 by conducting some sort of fundraiser designed by them. Any sponsor they get can also go towards that $200 fundraiser. Some students also choose to use a sponsorship or fundraiser to cover their participation fee, and some students choose to pay the $200 they are required to fundraise. The initial $200 (dubbed the Participation Fee) goes towards the team (for uniforms, transportation, and other team dealings). The student-executed fundraiser is refunded to the team member in the form of a scholarship given their senior year. This scholarship goes up by $250 every year the student is on the team. You have to graduate on the team to receive the scholarship.
