SWAG - fundraiser for RHS Athletic Boosters

New this year, purchase Swag to support the General RAB

The Roosevelt Boosters are offering Roosevelt Swag to families and athletes. The Swag store will be closing on September 13th. Proceeds from the sale of this Swag gear will support the General Booster Fund which helps pay for our trainer Casey! It’s also fun to support our athletes and school by wearing swag at our meets! 

Check out the store HERE: https://pateamstores.com/collections/roosevelt-cross-country 

 Also note that the gear purchased through the RAB is separate and apart from the team sweatshirts that the kids design and order each season. More on this season’s team sweatshirt to come. Thanks so much for supporting our team and school!

Fun stuff

On Tuesday, September 6, from 6-8pm, Road Runner Sports in Green Lake (map: https://goo.gl/maps/GHm4Qui6Dzq5yoGPA ) will host a fundraiser & shoe-fit night for our program. Athletes will have the opportunity to be fit for new running shoes and receive a 10% discount on purchases (and 10% of all sales will come back to the cross country program).

Pizza will also be provided at this event, and the coaching staff will put on another parent meeting to chat with you all or answer any questions in case you missed this week's meeting.

On Wednesday, September 7 (the first day of school), from 6-8pm, Oiselle will host a spike night at their flagship store in University Village (map: https://g.page/oiselleuniversityvillage?share ). Athletes (and parents!) will receive 20% off their purchases—this is a great time for athletes who need bras or black shorts for racing!
