Optimist concessions

memo continued.. Concession stand is run by volunteer parents and the money is deposited with the Optimist Club, through their association with the team. As it is done thru the Optimist Club no resale tax is charged. for the GMAC meet (all the HS in dade) the MSSH parents ran the concessions and all the money raised went to the payment of their pool rental. At large meets there may also be vendors that sell swimming apparel and products. The host team usually gets 10% of those sales. THE volunteer parents that run the concessions, are they host team parents, or Optimist parents? how long has the Optimist Club been associated with the swim team? Is there some kind of contract with them to assist the swim team? Do they just help the MSSH swim team? Do they provide this oppurtunity to everyone? Good to see the Optimist Club involved, but this is the first time this connection with the swim team has been revealed. Is this another handshake agreement?
