Booster Club looking for support, barbecue is Thursday

The Columbia Falls Booster Club will hold its annual Blue and White Barbecue fundraiser at the high school gym on Thursday, Aug. 21, from 5 to 7 p.m. with a hamburger or polish dog, chips, drink and a cookie for $5.

The club also is looking for support from community businesses. The club typically raises $10,000 to $15,000 for sports uniforms and equipment, sports calendars and programs, Wildc/kat merchandise and banners, state-placing receptions and goody baskets.

Last year, the club provided $3,500 for weight room benches, racks and platforms, $1,000 for T-shirts for all activity participants, $1,000 for cheerleading uniforms, $800 for divisional and state program support ads, $750 for a spaghetti feed kickoff, and a food donation to the student council for its Powder Puff Barbecue. For more information on the Booster Club, call the club’s officers at 250-3932 or 253-6581 or 249-6635.
