Costume Budgets
Costume Database
Each year based on the club's budget and the number of students in the team the Section Coach(es) will be allocated a team costume budget by the committee.
This document is a shared Google Sheet and is to be completed by the coach throughout the year to track spending and manage budgets.
Section coaches are required to complete the Budget Costumes tab by the 15th April. Please email any invoices/receipts to treasurer.bentleighcal1@gmail.com as soon as possible after purchase. The deadline for reimbursement is 31 October.
Team Costumes Guidelines
Please ensure that you follow these guidelines:
● Before creating a new costume for your section, check to see if there is not something already suitable in our costume wardrobe. You may be able to redo a costume to keep within budget.
● Please liaise with sections above/below you to see if you can loan a costume for a year (if sizes are suitable)
● If a set is not large enough you may be able to make a few new ones to make the set bigger, it is not recommended that you make new sets less than 12 as it is difficult to reuse these.
● Check that other teams are not using the costumes you would like to use.
● Early in the year you will need to allocate some class time to try on costumes or for sewers to collect measurements etc.
● If you need costumes out of your budget please email the Treasurers with your required budget and justification for the new costumes.
