Every dollar goes to the kids
Jr Pacers is 100% volunteer-run — no one is paid. Fundraising is how we buy equipment, cover field time, and keep registration some of the lowest in the league. Here's how you can pitch in.
The Yeti Cooler Raffle
Our biggest fundraiser of the year — and there are two loaded Yeti coolers up for grabs: a Gray Yeti packed with snacks and sports drinks (all ages), and a Blue Yeti stocked with adult beverages (21+). Winners are drawn at our annual Spaghetti Dinner & Raffle Night, streamed live on Facebook, with more prizes donated by local businesses. Every ticket keeps a Delaware kid on the field.
Every bit helps
