I don't think the public has any idea the amount of money the supporting clubs donate to the district for athletics. At West for example the OWBC just purchased a score board for the gym for $20,000.00. Parents have purchased warm-up and uniforms. For baseball clubs have buildt the dugouts, concession stands, hitting background, batting cages, infield drainage systems, as well as maintained the fields during the seasons. All at 0 cost to the taxpayer. The same goes for the North baseball fields. I am sure the average citizen has no idea this goes on. Did you?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
