7. Why a points system?
Sustain Booster Club viability & Financial stability due to:
A significant increase in the number of wrestlers participating (from 26 to a potential 70 in 5 years)
A significant decline in parent participation
A reliance entirely too much on a few parents/families

8. Booster Club spends approximately $450
Booster Club spends approximately $ including scholarship monies per wrestler each year.
As of today, we have 70 wrestlers that have expressed an interest in participating this year.
70 * 450 = $31,500

9. (6/24) 2008 Golf Tournament participation helped to make
this decision. There were 50 families in the program
