Background
I am in a NJROTC Unit in Area 12. The name of my unit is Sprayberry NJROTC. We are a brand new unit and have only been around for 4 years coming up this Thursday. We compete in a lot of Drill Competitions and Athletic Competitions, and just about anything else NJROTC units are supposed to do. We have around 100-150 in our Company.
Situation
Our school, Sprayberry High School, only sponsors athletic teams such as Basketball, Wrestling, Volleyball, Football, etc. etc.
That being said, they won't Sponsor our ROTC Program. Because they won't sponsor our program, we pretty much have to pay for everything, except for Uniforms. When we go to Drill Meets
we usually all just wear the same colors if we are going for PT Competition (Physical Training).
What my Company would appreciate is...
If anyone could donate to our NJROTC program. Anything at all will be more than happy at our program. If you are willing to donate please PM me, and I will give you Gny. Sgt Ingram (NSI) and/or Lt. Cmndr Wonders (SNSI) email. That way you can email them about your offers...
Also for more information feel free to reply to this post, or shoot me a PM.
Any and all donations are gladly accepted, and I am sure that my unit will express their thanks in multiple ways.

Have you ever thought of trying to bring a case to the administration? Technically you are an athletic team if you compete in athletic style competitions.
-
We have all wrote letters to the administration, and they claim "don't have the money for another team".
That is what my Gny. Sgt told me...

the Navy doesn't pay for everything?
that's the way it was/is at my high school back in '07

WAY back when ,when I was in Army JROTC we had to pay for everything other then uniforms. We had to do fund raisers all year for the extras. When we stayed overnight somewhere we all pitched in for the hotel rooms. We did get a Goverment van sometimes to travel in. Schools are not the sponsors, the Feds are. That being said I will try to help you guys out. IMHO the JROTC programs are the only class in school that teach anything useful.

Amazee. $$$'s are tight but I'll see what I can do.
Have you guys considered doing some type of 'garage sale' or something along those lines for a fund raiser? Just looking around I've got a ton of junk that people would probably be happy to buy that I'm just not in the mood to sell or deal with Craigslist or Ebay. Perhaps yall could reach out to local people to donate stuff to sell to raise funds. Just an idea.
-
Amaze get talk to some military types, maybe they can rattle some swords to get you some funding thru the base, or hold events to raise money
-
I cant do much in the way of donating I apologize. But I'll see what I can dig up at work tomorrow in the way of getting big brother Navy involved. Not promising much tho, Navy is going through huge cutbacks.

Bah! Get out in the mud and low crawl! Free & fun! :rock
