Shoe Drive Kicks-off Tuesday Night

We kick-off our annual shoe drive at Tuesday’s concert! (Kick, shoes, lol). Shoes with wear left are welcome, all ages and all types (baby through adult; boots, heels, etc.).

Bagging/tying pairs is especially appreciated!

Cupboards Almost Bare, Help us Stock the Shelves

If your family is able, we would be most grateful for help restocking the Booster closet with snacks for the students. The food is used to fuel the students during afternoon or weekend events and is greatly appreciated. Single serve/Individually packaged food is perfect. Shop the BOGOs and sales! We are grateful for your donations!
