Independence Athletic Boosters
The Independence Athletic Boosters are having a Reverse Raffle Fundraiser on May 21st, in a continuous effort to meet our mission;
"The purpose of the organization is to unite parents, students, faculty, alumni, community members, and local business in the support of the Independence Athletic Department (Middle and High school), to provide all Independence student athletics opportunities to maintain a history of excellence on and off the field.”
Over 300 students participate in athletics at the Middle and High School levels. This year we've teamed with the private and public sectors to provide new flooring as part of a weight and training room upgrade as well as replace the baseball field backstop. We've also supported over $4,500 in coach and athletic trainer requests that will impact all of our athletes. Also, seven organizations have received $1,000 each by donating profits from the football game concession stands for volunteering to work during the games. This is just some of what we have been able to do this year.
WE NEED YOUR HELP! Please come to an event planning meeting on Monday, February 28th at 6:30 p.m. at the high school media center (we could move to the cafeteria). We are looking for people who can help with ticket sales to broaden our reach to families outside the high school. As a parent of a freshman in college and a junior and freshman in high school, trust me when I say it is never too early to get involved. Getting involved when your children are in high school is too late. If you want to make an impact when your son or daughter is in high school, the time to do that is now.
Hope to see you Monday,
Jeff Pascarella, President
Independence Athletic Boosters
