Committee seeks funds for Anzar football program
In an effort to field a football team by fall 2011, as well as remain cost neutral to the Aromas-San Juan Unified School District, a new fundraising committee at Anzar High School is seeking approximately $25,000 for initial start-up costs by December of this year.
The Football Fundraising Committee is focusing on community members and local businesses to make pledges to a football program at Anzar, which would be a first for the San Juan Bautista high school.
The initial $25,000 price tag would help pay for uniforms, helmets and other equipment for the team, as well as help pay for coaches stipends, referees and league dues.
Anzar already boasts a football field, equipped with goal posts and an electronic scoreboard, thanks to the San Benito Cardinals of American Youth Football and Cheer.
If you would like to donate, all pledges, in any amount, can be sent to:
Anzar Football Fundraising Committee, 2300 San Juan Highway, San Juan Bautista, Calif., 95045.
Note: Donor should provide name, address and phone number and amount of his/her pledge. Pledges will be collected after Jan. 1, 2011.
