A good read on Booster Clubs


Recommended Posts

In small towns w/o much industry and few local business folk,the locals get swamped for donations from youth-high school activities along w/the many local golf tournament fundraisers/children services organizations/local rodeo/kick-off dances/youth groups football/softball/baseball/cheer/band/uil events/hs fishing now & on and on the list grows.Getting volunteers to work concessions,schedule fund raising events to earn monies as a support group for a school district is the hard part.Example=varsity or jr high track meet=approx 12 hrs of concession work,equivalent hrs of working over 3 home fb games.What can an individual do to help that have kiddos in atheletics?If your child from jr high thru high school is playing on a particular night=watch them,volunteer to work a shift another game or lend a helping hand during halftime activites.At Dayton on home side=Band Boosters have the largest single concession@the main entry on the s/w side,Dayton all sports booster club the smallest concession stand w/smoked turkey legs/links/boudan tent on the s/e home side near dressing rooms,teachers assoc has all the visitor concessions.Game ticket sales go into a general fund=that doesn't mean $ spent goes toward atheletics alone as one would think.**Name a great Booster Club=Nederland has to be brought up in the conversation=I've met some of those great supporters/club president who invited me/Buddy Garrity to their home tailgate party after a game(the whole block around the stadium)=they do it up well,Congrats
