Appleton Hockey Booster Club Purpose
The purpose of the Booster Club is to ensure that the financial resources required by the Appleton United Boys' Hockey Team are available. To this end, the Club assesses player fees, charges game admissions, sells game sponsorships, and undertakes other fund raising activities. Proceeds are used to pay that portion of the annual team expenses in excess of those paid by the Appleton Area School District and other infrequent expenses such as jersey replacement or locker room upgrades.
The Booster Club also engages in activities to promote and sustain high school boys' hockey in Appleton. All 2008/2009 season home games will be broadcast on AM 1570 The SCORE, continuing what the club hopes will become a tradition and positive promotion of hockey within the local community. We also publish an annual program; promote the team and their games at each of the three Appleton high schools; coordinate special game activities such as senior night and parents night; arrange for the national anthem to be sung and bands to play; and many, many other similar activities.
Lastly, we coordinate the many volunteers (hockey fans such as parents, students, and you!) needed to support the United Boys Hockey Team. Some volunteers donate a lot of time and talent, but most volunteer for limited assignments and enjoy being involved. We definitely need a large number of volunteers to make this happen and encourage you to join the club.
