Dear Shark Fans,
Welcome to the Shark Bites Booster Club! I want to thank those of you who have supported Shark Bites in the past, and welcome our new members who are joining for the first time this year.
Our mission is to support and promote the St Luke’s Athletic program through fundraising, soliciting and organizing volunteer support for athletic and fundraising activities, and encouraging student and parent attendance and participation with St Luke’s athletics.
Our primary financial support comes from Shark Bites membership fees, a jambalaya dinner in the fall, and a spring golf tournament. Last year, we also held a carwash in October and produced a cookbook in the spring, full of parent and student recipes. The cookbook campaign was so successful we had a second printing!
Proceeds from our fundraisers and membership fees have purchased equipment and uniforms, sponsored free sports camps, and provided athletic equipment to volunteer coaches. We also host the spring and fall athletic banquets. Our fundraising efforts have enabled us to purchase outdoor bleachers and benches, banners, and concession stand equipment. Through generous donations, we have also been able to purchase the stage in the gym. There are still many needs to be met, but we can only do it with your support!
How can you help?
By participating in our many fundraising activities!!!!!!!!!!!
None of this is possible without the dedication and effort of the parents of our St Lukes children. I hope that you and your family will become involved in Shark Bites, and I look forward to seeing you at our next event.
Please email me with any questions at sharkbites@stlukesbrschool.org.
Until then,
Amanda Burgess
Shark Bites President
