RAZOR AQUATICS SWIM TEAM

Razor Aquatics is a Metro Detroit swim team dedicated to getting African American youth to participate and excel in competitive swimming.  Our program has produced some incredible swimmers in our area.  We look to continue that process and increase our positive results.  Our team is about far more than achieving high quality results in the pool however.  We focus on developing strong character in our athletes through instilling powerful discipline habits, honesty, integrity, and the strength to handle challenges.

OUR ANNUAL FUNDRAISER

Our team holds one big fundraiser per year.  We do this so we don’t have to divert our focus from training our athletes by running a bunch of smaller fundraisers throughout the year.  Our fundraiser is essential to helping us offset our annual program costs.  We are an independent, self-funded swim program that incurs tens of thousands of dollars in expenses every year.  This annual fundraiser allows us to provide ample training time, a high quality training program, resources, and competitive and social opportunities for our families while still remaining affordable. 

The support from our community means a great deal to us.  Our supporters allow us to build strong swimmers and even stronger people.  We sincerely appreciate everyone that contributes to our fundraiser.  

HOW THE LASER TAG TOURNAMENT FUNDRAISER WORKS

For our last five fundraisers, we held a dodgeball tournament at the end of our 29 days of fundraising.  This year however, we are holding a laser tag tournament.  

Each family on our team partners up with another family on the team to raise funds together for 29 days.  The more funds they raise during that period, the higher their team’s point multiplier will be in the laser tag tournament at the end of the fundraiser.  The point multiplier is the number their team’s score will be multiplied by in the laser tag tournament.  So the more funds each team raises, the higher their chances of winning in the laser tag tournament.

 The winning team will earn a weekend trip to either New York, Miami, or Myrtle Beach.  Team members will also have the opportunity to earn other prizes in the tournament based on their scores.  Prizes will include items such as team apparel, team backpacks, team duffle bags, team water bottles, team notebooks, etc.  Weekly prizes are also distributed to the weekly leaders during the 29 days of fundraising.  

This year’s laser tag tournament will take place on April 2, 2023 at 9:00am
