Our skaters bring individual experience in singles, pairs, ice dance, theatrical, production, artistic ensemble, and synchronized skating to the team. However, our skaters need your help to reach their dreams and keep this wonderful form of theatre alive and well in Silicon Valley. Ice Theatre has been a primarily east coast based program; all competitions, including Nationals, take place on the east coast. This year the team is hoping to compete in both Vermont (Northeast Theatre on Ice Festival, March 2015), and Cape Cod (National Ice Theatre Championship, June 2015). Our fundraising goal is $15,000 to help cover team travel, ice time, costumes, scholarships and other expenses. How Can You Help? By becoming a sponsor, you can help SVIT reach our goal of raising the $15,000 we need to help cover team travel and expenses. We cannot do this without your help. As a sponsor, you will provide critical support to this dynamic group of deserving young individuals, helping provide them the opportunity to reach their goals. SVIT is a 501(c) (3) non-profit organization. In recognition of your generous support, we would like to promote your business or family name in one of the various ways listed in our enclosed sponsorship flyer.
