What’s better than a student giving a book talk to her peers? A student initiating it all on her own! Great presentation, Sophie! #growingreaders #proudcardinal
Dryden Athletic Boosters = More Than Concessions 🏀⚽🏐
Did you know our Athletic Boosters help fund:
• Equipment & uniforms across multiple sports
• The new football scoreboard (coming Fall 2026)
• Basketball scouting software used by players & coaches
• Track & XC record boards
• Baseball equipment and facility upgrades
They’re also helping plan for future needs like field improvements, gym scoreboards, track upgrades, and weight room equipment.
👉 The challenge: Just 5 regular members are currently carrying most of the work — and many will graduate out soon.
📅 Next Booster Meeting
Tuesday, January 20
7:00 PM
At this meeting, we’ll discuss major fundraising efforts and coaches’ wish lists for equipment and program needs.
If you want a voice in how Dryden athletics is supported, this is a great place to start. No experience needed — just a willingness to help.
