Booster Club

ABOUT THE BOOSTER CLUB

Founded in late 2009, the Bishop Blanchet Booster Club was formed by the parents and guardians of 十大网赌靠谱平台网站 student athletes to promote and support athletics – all athletics – at Bishop Blanchet High School.

The goal of the Bishop Blanchet Booster Club is to promote athletics in an atmosphere that is consistent with the values of the school, and also the policies and procedures, to include the guidelines applicable to “Volunteers” established by the Archdiocese of Seattle.

WHY ARE WE HERE?

The Bishop Blanchet Booster Club was created as an avenue for supporters of 十大网赌靠谱平台网站 athletic programs, athletes and the school – including parents, grandparents, coaches, alumni, relatives, local businesses, and school staff – to provide supplementary funding for  十大网赌靠谱平台网站’s athletic programs. We sponsor improvements and additions to 十大网赌靠谱平台网站's facilities, sports equipment, provide coaching aids, sponsor attendance at athletic camps/events, recognize individual and team athletic achievements, increase school spirit by sale of school and athletic logo merchandise and organize other fundraising activities, and donate proceeds to the school’s athletic programs and student athletes.

WHO CAN BELONG?

Membership in the Bishop Blanchet Booster Club is open to all of the following:

· Parents of past or current 十大网赌靠谱平台网站 students
. Alumni of Bishop Blanchet High School
. Grandparents, older siblings and other relatives of current 十大网赌靠谱平台网站 students who wish to support 十大网赌靠谱平台网站 athletics

WHICH SPORTS DO WE HELP?

Too often, Booster Clubs at other schools support “only football” or only the other “major sports”. NOT AT BISHOP BLANCHET! The Bishop Blanchet Booster Club supports ALL athletes and athletic teams at 十大网赌靠谱平台网站.

We understand the “life” value that athletics provide to young adults. The lessons learned in pushing yourself beyond what you thought possible, both physically and mentally, being part of a team, the heat and joy of competition, the joy of winning… and the pain of losing, and the camaraderie that can only come from “going into battle” with your team all carry through and benefit our students in all walks of later adult life. It is the goal of the Bishop Blanchet Booster Club to ensure that every student athlete at 十大网赌靠谱平台网站 has the very best sports experience they can possibly have while attending 十大网赌靠谱平台网站.

Well-rounded people go a long way toward making the world we will live in a better place, and our goal in forming the Bishop Blanchet Booster Club is to do our part to turn out well-rounded young adults at 十大网赌靠谱平台网站 by providing them the best that high school athletics can provide!
