2015 Calendar Sales

2015 CALENDAR SALES

Hello Parents-

Our Zumbrota-Mazeppa Wrestling Community Calendar is one of the largest fundraisers for our program. These calendars run March through February and are personalized with birthdays and anniversaries. Each year, 7th- 12th grade wrestlers head out into the community to gather calendar orders. Money raised through calendar sales goes directly to the program to provide things such as lodging & clothing for the team. The goal is for each wrestler to sell at least 10 calendars. Those who reach this goal will have their names entered into a drawing for MN Gopher Wrestling tickets.

On Saturday, November 21st following practice, the wrestlers will take part in a sales blitz. The boys will sell calendars around Zumbrota & Mazeppa from 11:30-1:30 and will be provided with a catered lunch afterward @ the high school. Calendar sales will continue through November 30th, 2015 and delivery will be scheduled in February 2016.

Although Saturday practices are not mandatory for the Junior High wrestlers, their attendance is required on the 21st.

Please email Link with any questions.  link.steffen@state.mn.us

Thank you,
