[BHS Etree] FUNDRAISING - Support Sports at Berkeley High

[BHS etree]

PLEASE do not reply to this email, contact Jeff Suess jeff.suess at gmail.com 

 

You'll soon be getting a request for donations in your mailbox from the
Berkeley High Athletic Fund. Please consider donating. 

 

Why? 

.           One third of Berkeley High students participate in one or more
of the 29 sports offered each year. From Badminton to Wrestling, and
everything in-between, there is a sport for everyone at BHS!

.           BAF is funding Freshman sports this year (2011-2012).

.           BAF funds an assistant to the Athletic Director who takes care
of many clerical duties in the AD's office.

.           BAF funds a strength and conditioning coach to help students in
the weight room (now located at the YMCA Teen Center after the closing of
the Old Gym)

.           When enough funds are available, BAF funds grants for teams for
uniforms and equipment, and other supplies. Last year BAF was able to fill
grants for several BHS teams.

.           BAF maintains a website making available contact information for
each sport with a downloadable version of the Athletic Packet and other
forms. http://www.berkeleyhighathletics.org

.           BAF sells wearables; t-shirts, sweatshirts and pants, caps, and
other BHS pride wear. Get some team spirit!

 

Why should we support sports at Berkeley High?

.           Sports create community. BHS is huge! Kids can find community
through membership in a team.

.           Sports keep kids fit. Kids do better in school when their bodies
are healthy. 

.           Sports give some kids a reason to come to school. For many
teenagers, it is their sports team that draws them to school and gives them
a reason to keep their grades up.

Let's help our kids experience community, feel better, and stay in school.
Support sports at BHS with your donation  of any amount to the Berkeley High
Athletic Fund. Every amount helps. Remember, your donation goes directly to
support sports at Berkeley High. BAF is an all-volunteer organization. Tax
