How do I become involved with Booster Club?
You can be involved with Booster Club in multiple ways. One way is to provide direct financial support through a membership. Different membership levels are available so you can choose the one that’s right for you. Another way to be involved is to donate your time helping at various events throughout the year, such as the golf fundraiser, jazz festival, and Ford’s Drive 4 UR School fundraiser. One of the most important ways to get involved is to volunteer as part of a Hoover or Meredith group to work in the concession stands throughout the year. Check with your student’s coach or director for more information.
Why is it so important for volunteers to work in the concession stands?
The only way the concession stands can be open is if volunteers are available to staff them. Sales from concessions are one way the Booster Club makes money to help support athletic and fine arts programs. The concession stands are also a good public relations activity to promote a great experience at the schools.
