Ongoing Board Participation

The Athletic Boosters Club is always looking for parents to join our fun and dedicated team!!  We welcome new ideas and believe the more parent involvement the stronger we are.

Although our board is nearly full for our current school year, we still need help! Interested in joining the Board? The VP of Communications and VP Capital Projects positions are still open! Have tech experience? We’d love help making the most of our new HUDL software- reach out to us if you are interested! Extra volunteers are always welcome to help complete other projects and events- we need parents from our student athlete parent community to participate.  Boosters is only limited in what we can accomplish by the number of eyes and hands we can engage in the process. Here’s an example of the contributions we commit to completing each year:

  • Dinner and Auction – our biggest fundraiser. We need leaders for many of our auction activities: Donations, food, decorations, entertainment and more!
  • Membership Sales – our second biggest fundraiser.  Most of the activity takes place at the beginning of the school year during Knight’s Day and when parents ramp up in support of fall teams.
  • Merchandise Sales – we carry inventory of all the best LL spirit wear/swag as well as much needed sport parkas for outdoor sports. Best part- 100% of profits benefit all LL athletic programs.
  • Scholarships Awards – we provide multiple scholarship awards–ranging from $100 to $500.  These are awarded at the discretion of the Boosters and the Athletic Director by taking into account coaches’ feedback:
    • Outstanding Athletes 
    • Boosters Award 
    • Scholar Athlete 
    • Outstanding Contribution
