The Booster Club Blog has been linked to the Booster Club homepage. The Spirit Wear page will also be linked to the Booster Club homepage in the future.
Sharon Thielicke submitted 12-15 new logo designs that she has created. Sharon researched the school history for mascots and team colors. The designs were all laid out on the table for Members to review and comment on. The group narrowed it down to two options with a few notes made for tweaking the logo. Some history - the Goose mascot’s name was Zeus, the past colors for the school were blue, yellow, green, white. Photographs of the two designs chosen with notes have been included with these minutes email for reference. One shirt is geared to High School Students and the other is chosen for Elementary School students. Thank you Sharon for all your time and efforts. Great designs! Can’t wait to see the finished product!
Booster club will offer the toss the beanbag basketball raffle this year as a fundraiser. Participants can buy the beanbag at the entrance to the game for $1. Halftime when announced all throw the bean bag onto the gym floor to a designated target. Closest wins half of that night’s beanbag sale proceeds. There is a second prize for next closest which is a free drink and candy given by and redeemable at the Booster Club concession stand. A few beanbags will need to be replaced, sticker numbers are plentiful.
Mail: PTO expo in Boston, fundraising mailings, a notice for personalized charms made locally. Booster club no action taken.
Amy Moynihan got pompom hats and the whole order has already sold out. A check was issued for $360 to pay for spirit wear including cinch bags and green fleece hats. Bonnie also purchased “S” stickers and magnets for $60.00. All products are for sale at the Sherburne Gym concession stand. The “S” stickers and magnets may be made available at the SMHS office. The idea of renting stadium cushions for the games was discussed. They would be marked with an “S” sticker and then “property of” to ensure their return for future rentals. A few will be purchased to try out fan response, interest and support. The Booster Club members met at the Sherburne Gym to prepare for the Basketball season. After the meeting, members reviewed t-shirt logo submissions, updated the bulletin board, cleaned out the concession stand, took inventory of food and spirit wear, and reviewed the basketball schedule provided until placed on sign up genius.


Next Booster Club Meeting is scheduled for January 19, 2017 at the SMHS Classroom of Sharon Parsons, middle school wing.
