Family Responsibilities

We are a 100% volunteer organization -- without the help of our families, our games and other activities would not happen!. Therefore, all families are required to volunteer to some degree in fundraising, game day, and other various volunteer slots. We have found that different families have different availabilities to do so. With that in mind, CLE has created a fee tier so that families have more flexibility to decide how to support the team. The fee tier chosen by the family at registration determines their volunteer requirements. Families with a willingness and availability to volunteer more hourse will receive a discount of several hundred dollars per athlete. As part of the online registration, families are given a link to the SignUpGenius (which provides the complete list of volunteer opportunities to choose from.) . Our goal is that everyone will be able to feel the value of their volunteering a little more by assigning it a monetary amount. We want to streamline all types of volunteering so that it all “counts”. Knowing there are so many ways to invest in our Cincinnati Landmark family, we want to make a BIG deal about all of them!

* Note that football players will NOT be given any of their equipment until the appropriate volunteer hours have been scheduled for that player.

* The volunteer hour requirements are per family, regardless of how many athletes you have registered. For example, having 2 athletes does not double your volunteer requirement. However, you must pick the same volunteer commitment tier for each of your athletes when registering.
