Boosters Bash and Raffle Tickets
The annual Boosters Bash is our biggest athletic fundraiser of the year and will be held on April 27. There are three different ways to help support this event:
1) Each athlete is asked to sell 5 raffle tickets for $10 each. If your athlete has not gotten them, look for Adam after practice on Tuesdays. They may return the money and stubs to Adam on Tuesdays or via his athlete Beth Hamalian. 50% of all proceeds comes back to Xcountry. If we get 100% participation, we get to throw a pizza party.
2) We are looking for two volunteers to represent XC for the Booster Bash, the main annual fundraiser for the boosters. It will be April 27. Planning starts after the first of the year.
3) Donations for a) a team basket, b) additional items for the silent auction and c) bigger ticket items for the live auction.
4) Join boosters via the website.
Please contact our Boosters rep, Adam Hamalian, if you have any questions.
