WILDCATS BOOSTER CLUB
WILDCATS BOOSTER CLUB
VISION
Further the enrichment of students participating in Extra-Curricular Activities.
FUNDRAISING
Wildcats Booster Club’s (WBC) purpose is to raise money for the Activities of all Custer Jr/Sr High School Organizations. Some of the ways we raise monies are to sell what is called 50/50 tickets, which means there is an option to purchase 1 ticket for $1, 6 tickets for $5 or 12 tickets for $10. The winner splits the amount with the WC Booster Club, or they can donate their portion back to WCB. We host tailgate parties at the FB games, selling meal plates @ $5 each. And, sell WC gear!
PARTNER WITH WCB
WCB would like for anyone interested in partnering with us to help with activities throughout the season, such as, selling Wildcats Gear, 50/50 tickets or working Concession Stand! Any of your time given is much appreciated and will help all of the Student Organizations of our Custer Wildcats!
