Think of the questions your customers ask most frequently and write them here along with the answers.

A: Since 1963 the Booster Club, a parent/community facilitated 501 (C)(3) non profit organization, has played an active role in enhancing the overall quality of athletics at Avon High School. Our purpose is to provide our student athletes with additional funds and opportunities so that they can excel and represent Avon High School in a positive manner. The Club has enabled the purchase of equipment for sports teams and sponsored social events to encourage interaction between Boosters, players, parents, and coaches.

A: The district only provides enough money to pay for coaches, referees, transportation, and some supplies, such as medical equipment and balls. Big-ticket items such as uniforms and practice gear can only be partially funded through district funds.

The Booster Club provides funding that is not covered by the school district, gate fees, or player fees. Keeping our students engaged in extracurricular activities helps them build successful lives. The Booster Club has funded activities, such as

• Coach's training clinic fees.
• Transportation expenses for spectators for away games.
• Fan gifts at Football games.
• Equipment and new uniforms.
• Fall, Winter, and Spring Sports Awards Night and flowers for senior parents.
• Scholarships for graduating seniors
  
• Capital improvement projects like the new sound system on the Football field, scoreboards, crew racing shell & ergometers, indoor batting cage, Lacrosse goals and nets, bleachers at the Buckingham fields, Basketball name boards for the new gym and more.
