This is the one time of year that we get together as a community, without our children, for the benefit of our children. All of the funds raised at this event will be used to support our football program. Without your generosity, we would not have many of the much needed items that our program provides for the players and coaches. 
 

The Night at the Races will include; horse race betting, basket raffles, 50/50 raffle and great food. The event is BYOB; however, pop, beer and water are provided.

An important part of putting together an event like this is the support we get from our football families and friends. We are fortunate to have a supportive group of parents and coaches that are always willing and ready to lend a hand when needed. With this said, we are coming to you with a few requests:

1.) Attend the Night at the Races. This is a great way to get together with your friends and meet new friends!

2.) Sell 4 Tickets. We are asking each player/family to sell at least 4 tickets for this event. The tickets are $25 per person and include appetizers, beer, water, and pop. 

3.) Buy 4 Horses and/or Jockeys.  At least 100 horses need to be sold (10 races – 10 horses per race). Once 100 horses have been sold, we sell jockeys. The cost of buying a horse/jockey is $15 each. If your horse/jockey wins, then you win $40. All horses need to be sold by March 15th. Please see the info below about submitting horses/jockeys.  

4) Donations. We need donations for the Basket Raffle and Bourbon Raffle. Each family is asked to make at least one donation, if possible. You can donate cash through Paypal, put together a basket of your own, or donate any items you wish.  All donations can be dropped off to Kathy Watkins.  

If you have any contacts with local businesses, please help us out by soliciting a donation.  Email Kathy Watkins  (kathyw323@gmail.com) if you need a copy of the donation letter to give to a business.  Text Kathy Watkins at 412-225-8233 if you have any questions.  Please drop off donations to Kathy by March 15th.
 

We are very excited about this upcoming fundraiser and hope to see all of you there!
