Surplus money will go toward ensuring the team is sustainable in the future, including purchasing new jerseys, reconditioning equipment and other expenses. Cheerleaders, too, will now be able to accompany the team, a request that was tabled when funds were low. The funds will be used for transportation and lodging. “For it to happen so soon was such a blessing.” “It’s amazing and a little overwhelming,” Sean Kent, the team’s vice president, told the Times Union as the team was flooded with donations in November.
The swift campaign was pulled off by a constellation of civic boosters that incorporated broad elements of the community - including corporate donors, politicians and everyday people. The team plans to spend the money on the trip and then use the rest to ensure the team's finances stay stable for years. When word of the team's situation got out, companies and hundreds of individuals made donations, raising $100,000. Last month, the team went to City Hall to celebrate its local success and its coach, Josh Perry, told the Times Union that the team did not have the $35,000 to pay for the trip to Universal Studios in Orlando, where the playoffs will be held. Just making it to Florida seemed like a victory for the team.
