SALERNO’S FUNDRAISER

Great NEW fundraising opportunity for April at Salerno’s! RUNNING THROUGH END OF APRIL!

Enjoy great food and earn fundraising dollars to help with travel fees and the end of the year reward competitions and meets.

-When: Every Tuesday and Wednesday for the month of April

-What you need to do? Ask friends and family when eating out to go to Salerno’s in Highland Village.

-Next: Ask them to write your team member’s name on the receipt and drop it off at the front of the restaurant. (please print name)

-Salerno’s is going to then pay 10% back per receipt total. This does include alcohol just not sales tax. So if you are going out for a glass of wine why not pay yourself back 10%!

-Additional efforts: You may also hand out cards at Salerno’s; we just ask that you stay outside dressed in an Excite! Shirt and athletic pants.

*Excite! will prepare these cards for you to pick up at the front desk by next Tuesday.

Any miscellaneous receipts with no names listed; we will split among all that have participated in this fundraising event.
