Boys Cross Country
Donations Requested

Our program has grown from 8 runners in the 2001 season to over 40 runners in the 2004 and 2005 seasons.  With this growth, a need for more supplies and uniforms came.  We have borrowed uniforms from the track team since our budget would not allow us to purchase the amount of uniforms for our runners.  We have had parents and businesses make financial contributions to the team to help purchase sweats for the 2005 season (we are currently still owe on this bill).  We have had businesses donate real estate signs that we repaint to make for parking signs.  We have had businesses donate golf cars which we use to bring water to the runners on the trails we train on.  We have had such supportive alumni, parents and community.

If you are willing, we are requesting the following donations:

    A frig/freezer -          to store water, popcycles and other supplies to cool the runners down.
