GEORGIA DOME is a shared fund raising event that we will do with Kennesaw Mountain HS NJROTC program. If they do not have the needed 16 parents and cadets, they will ask Allatoona for 4 parents and 4 cadets and we will be able to split the proceeds earned with Kennesaw Mountain High School NJROTC Program.
PLEASE REPLY DIRECTLY TO TIMI WYMAN’S EMAIL at timiwyman@gnmail.com with your full name and phone number. Full names are needed by the Georgia Dome. At least 16 people are needed to run the concession stand - 8 of those will need to be adults, the others can be cadets age 17 and older. KHMS will let us know which events we will be needed at. If we just run the Concession stand we can make anywhere from $500-$800 per event to be split with KMHS. If we can get 20 people (12 will have to be adults) we can get a beer cart and we can make an average of $800-$1200 per event. Parents will work the registers and all BEER being opened. Cadets are used as food runners for the registers and for food prep in the back as necessary. Remember: Kennesaw Mountain HS will only call on us if they do not have enough support from their own parents and cadets to run the concession stand so we will be spliting their Commission. However, this will still get us some $$ and allow our cadets to work with other cadets.
There is a dress code for the dome - Black shoes no color trim (slip resistant), black pants (not jeans/shorts/skirts), and a plain white t-shirt (no graphics). The Dome provides the Dress Shirt/Hat/Apron/Vest.
THERE ARE INCENTIVES FOR YOU (Activity Fees MUST be paid in Full in order to receive the incentives): Parents (with Activity Fees paid) - For every event worked you will receive a $25 refund of your Activity Fees (to be paid at the end of all the dome Events and not to exceed the amount of Activity Fee paid by family). This is a per family so if both spouses work the same event you still only get $25 refund of paid fees)
Cadets (with Activity Fees Paid) - Work 3 events and you get a free ticket to the Formal Ball for March 10, 2012.

Thank you in advance for your support.
Our unit operates within a budget of approximately $20,000 a year and we gladly accept corporate, small business
and private donations to help with our unit needs. In addition to participating in Community Service events, Drill meets, Orienteering events, and Rifle competitions, the cadets are responsible for helping with fundraising opportunities through
out the year. In the year 2010-2011 our cadets and the Booster Club raised money by helping with the Allatoona home football games assisting with parking, gate entry and the cleanup of the stadium after the games in addition to selling cotton candy during the games. Last year cadets sold cookie dough, lollipops, and candy on campus. They also hosted 3 car washes at the Kroger on Acworth Due West and Cobb Parkway, held a yard sale, and sent out support letters to family and friends requesting donations to help raise support for the unit program. We appreciate all of our supporters.
