MAKING ULTIMATE TRAINING CAMP A REALITY

  • Identify the UTC date/location that will work for your schedule.

    • Consider training commitments, work, and personal/family commitments, etc.

  • Go to ultimatetrainingcamp.com to register up for the UTC you want to attend and pay the $100 deposit.

    • Once you pay the deposit, this reserves your spot for that camp.

    • If you are unable to pay the deposit, please let us know and we can discuss other options.

Raising Funds to Attend Camp

Our primary method of raising funds to attend the Ultimate Training Camp is to send letters to people inviting them to partner with you to make UTC possible. You’ll be surprised how excited people are to give!

You’ll find more info on the UTC website, but here are the basics:

  1. Brainstorm 35 names of people that you could send a letter to. Don’t rule anyone out at this stage!

    • Narrow down the list to your 25 strongest people you want to invite to partner with you on going to camp, and gather their addresses and phone numbers.

      • If you absolutely can’t find those, get an email address or find them on Facebook.

  2. Address large envelopes (#10) to the people on your list with your address in the top left and place a stamp on it in the top right.

    • Put stamps on little return envelopes addressed to you, in case they want to give by check.

    • Write a personal note and attach it to the letter from Teg Tegelaar (UTC Executive Director).

      • Make sure in your note that they know NOT to put your name on the check ANYWHERE to avoid any NCAA violations.

    • Fold the letter in thirds and place the response card, return envelope, and note from you inside the letter, and put it all in the large envelopes.

  3. PRAY, PRAY, PRAY, and send them out. Bring all of your checks with you to camp unless you have an AIA staff person on your campus who you can give the checks to. If your partners give online to your account number it will be credited to your account.

Transportation to Camp

Each athlete is responsible for their own transportation to and from camp. However, we encourage carpooling as much as possible. Begin thinking about and planning your transportation to and from your UTC location.

If you are unable to find a suitable method of transportation to and from camp, please let us know and we can discuss other options.

Thanking Your Partners

  1. Commit to writing each partner who gives financially a handwritten thank you note.

  2. Commit to sending each partner a text with a picture of you at camp thanking them again.
