Dear Applicants, North Country Spouses’ Club
North Country Spouses’ Club 2014 Gift Wrap Dear Applicants, The Post Exchange on Fort Drum allows North Country Spouses’ Club (NCSC) to host a Gift Wrap table during the holiday season, specifically 29 November 2014 to 24 December 2014. The NCSC is proud to open a number of dates to Private Organizations (POs) and Family Readiness Groups (FRGs) to operate the table in an effort to fundraise. An annual lottery takes place to determine the FRG and PO dates. Dates for FRGs and POs will be announced at the lottery. Please complete the attached application and submit by 7 November 2014. A complete application packet includes the attached application (signed by the unit commander and FRG Leader) and a copy of the FRG/PO bank statement, in order to verify the organization’s name. Each applying organization must also include a check deposit in the amount of $100. No personal checks accepted. If the organization must cancel, please notify NCSC 4 business days prior to their assigned date. If the organization does not cancel within the allotted time, a $100 cancellation fee will be charged. Otherwise, the organization will receive the original $100 deposit in addition to monies split evenly between all organizations involved during the gift wrap season. Please submit application packet to: NCSC; Attn: Gift Wrap; P.O. Box 327; Fort Drum, NY 13602. The lottery for this year’s Gift Wrap Fundraiser will be at USO Fort Drum Room 1 on Monday November 17, 2014 at 6PM. Each organization must have a representative present during the lottery drawing. No one can represent more than one organization. All gift wrapping is for donations only. All monies donated into the NCSC Gift Wrap donation box during the assigned time for each PO/FRG will be distributed at the conclusion of Gift Wrap Season; two specific dates after January 1, 2015 but before January 15, 2015. The NCSC wants this fundraiser to be a team fundraiser, therefore profits will be split evenly between the organizations that are participating. The time and date of distribution of money will be communicated to you through email after the conclusion of the gift wrap season on December 24, 2014. Distribution of checks to FRGs/POs will occur no later than January 15, 2015. Please do not hesitate to contact us if you have any questions at NCSCFundraising@gmail.com. We look forward to working with you for Gift Wrap 2014! Sincerely, Jill Walton and Colleen Rhoads NCSC Fundraising Chairs Gift Wrap Participation Policies 1.
