Bulldog Booster Club Formed to Support Student Activities

Bulldog Booster Club Formed
to Support Student Activities
 
 
 
 
The Bulldog Booster Club, a new charitable organization aimed at supporting Milbank Area student programs, has been launched this month. It has been created by a group of school administrators, athletic coaches and parent volunteers.
The club’s focus will be on cultivating school spirit and developing multidisciplinary skills, good sportsmanship, character and high ideals in Milbank students. Capital projects to improve facilities and equipment will be reviewed with a goal to enhance activity programs for Milbank students.
“The Bulldog Booster Club meets a long-time need for consistent and continual support for our student programs, “said Steve Wenzl, president of the newly formed booster club. “We’re looking forward to collaborating with others across our school district and our community and bring Milbank student programs to even greater heights.”
Ryan Scoular is vice president of the club and Brian Sandvig, secretary/treasurer. Justin Downes, Dan Snaza, Kathleen Holscher and Katie Heller are board directors. According to Wenzl, the club will look to parents and volunteers for additional support as the membership and activities develop.
Another goal of the club is to streamline fundraising efforts. In the past, each activity group was responsible for its fundraising. With the new club, the fundraising for all activities will be consolidated. One major fundraiser was staged this fall and others are planned during the winter and spring seasons.
Currently, the booster club is focusing on the athletic activities, but it is the long-term goal of the organization to include all student activities. Funding requests will be funneled through Scoular who will present them to the board for approval.
Membership in the club is open to the public and support levels are set at $25, $50, $150, $250 and $500+. Those wishing to become a member can contact Scoular or any of the board members.
