We are so thankful for each and every one of you that has joined us in supporting Franklin Athletics this year. If you haven't signed up yet,  now is the time.  Become a member at our general meeting Monday, March 11 and get your free maroon Franklin Athletic Boosters shirt before they're gone for good.
We are looking for sponsors! If you know a business or family that might be interested in having a sign in the gym, on the field/track or an ad on our website please contact FAB. You can also find more information on FAB Sponsorship here.
FAB IS NOTHING WITHOUT VOLUNTEERS!
FAB is very fortunate to have a small group of regular volunteers working behind the scenes, at the front door selling tickets, selling concessions, and working with teams and coaches.

We are proud to say 90% of the winter concession stand and ticket sales shifts were staffed by FAB volunteers. Not bad for an organization that was founded in September.

Where do volunteers come from ? 
Each sport staffs their sport's youth events. For example, the high school basketball teams worked concessions and ticket sales for the PIL youth basketball games at FHS on Saturdays. FHS Wrestling did the same for the youth wresting tournament this winter. In addition to helping at the youth events, each team is asked to provide volunteers for FHS athletic events in their off season.  Families, students, coaches and friends are encouraged to sign up for at least two volunteer shifts.

How can I get more information on volunteering? 
Each sport has a team liaison or a coach that helps share FAB information. Team liaisons will help get volunteers signed up for a few volunteer shifts. Smaller sports (tennis <30 student athletes) are not expected to  fill as many volunteer shifts as larger sports (football >75 student athletes). Email info@franklinathleticboosters.com for more information.
POSITIONS THAT NEED FILLED ASAP
CONCESSIONS & TICKET SALES

Franklin Athletic Boosters are  in charge of the indoor and outdoor concession stands and ticket sales for all home contests. Each sport has a team liaison that helps secure volunteers for events. 

We are looking for an individual or team of volunteers to help manage the concessions stands. The concession stands need regular attention. We have plans in place for stocking and general operations  however we need help executing these plans and help with day to day operations. Please contact us if you have questions or would like to volunteer.

Have a request for items you would like to see in the concession stand? Let us know! 

If you would like to volunteer in concessions, contact us and include the sport you would like to volunteer time for. We will forward your information on to the correct team liaison.
SOCIAL MEDIA CONTRIBUTORS

FAB has an Instagram account, a Facebook account and a Facebook page. We are looking for contributors for these accounts. FHS is a busy place and with 17 PIL sanctioned sports and all of our youth teams. We can't keep up. Please share any articles, photos or stories directly to our social media accounts or tag Franklin Boosters. We would love to showcase every sport and greatly appreciate all the help we can get.
 
FAB IS FUNDING TEAM REQUESTS!
Hard work and volunteer hours are starting to payoff!  Franklin Athletic Boosters granted three financial requests so far this year. 

Tennis received $800 toward a new ball machine.
Men's and Women's basketball each received $750 for a Shoot-A-Way. 

We can't wait to see a few videos of our FHS athletes using their new equipment.
