Planning begins for O-H Booster Club's fundraiser

As students return to begin the 2014-15 school year, the Odessa/Harrington Booster Club members are busy planning the fifth annual Odessa/Harrington Booster Club Dinner and Silent/Live Auction to be held Saturday, November 1. The event will be held at the Odessa Community Center.

Booster club members appreciate all of the donations and volunteer hours provided in prior years. Each year, club members are overwhelmed by generosity of the two neighboring Titan communities, as the auction and donations continue to increase! Because of this generosity, last year’s auction earned more than $19,000 and allowed the club to fund an abundance of new equipment, sports uniforms and entry fees for several camps and tournaments.

Proceeds from previous auctions also resulted in the first-ever scholarships for two 2014 graduates as they enter upon their college careers. All of this has been made possible from outstanding community support from Odessa, Harrington and surrounding towns!

As in each prior year, club members will begin collecting donations now from families, individuals or businesses. Cash donations are also welcome and will be used to purchase items for the silent and live auctions. Any and all donations (however big or small) are gratefully accepted. Families, individuals and businesses will be recognized as donors of the item during the night of the event. Those wishing to make a donation are asked to provide their contribution by Friday, October 17, to:
