STATE CHAMPIONSHIP RINGS
We are so happy for our baseball and softball teams and coaches. It is a great accomplishment to win a state championship, but it also required many hours of hard work and dedication from the players and coaches. The teams would like to have and we feel that they deserve state championship rings. We are establishing a “Ring Fund” to help them with the cost of these rings. If you would like to help, please send donations to the school. Donations may be given to the general ring fund, or may be noted to help a certain player. Thank you in advance for your generosity.
