Many thanks to our maintenance and custodial staff, parent volunteers, and other support staff for helping to prepare for and run the events. There are too many to list individually.
Thank you to our Booster Club for helping with t-shirts and for sponsoring the volleyball tournament hospitality room.
Thank you to Olig’s for sponsoring the cross country meet hospitality room. Also, thank you to the Kissiar family and the City of Licking for allowing use of property for our course.
