Bruin Boosters bring $118,000+ back to BHS, Community
The Bruin Boosters worked 4 concession stands last year at Lucas Oil Stadium. This included Colts games, a concert, high school band and football events, and the NCAA Final 4. After concluding their work for 2009-2010 they ended up making an estimated $118,000.
The Bruin Boosters were recognized as the #1 fundraising group in the Nation through Centerplate conession stands. Centerplate is the largest concession company in the country working the Super Bowl, Pro Bowl, NBA All-Star game, and the Olympics just to name a few.
This year's schedule for Lucas Oil can be found under the awards and recognition heading until we figure out how to change that.
The Boosters also worked 2 pro shops every Colts game through an agreement with 1987 BHS graduate Jeremy Coffman who works at MainGate.
These
opportunities will be used for parents and athletes to work and bank money for practice package fees and other school expenses. Beth & Jack Norton, John Simmons, and Missy Shrock will coordinate the program. The schedule for this program is under Booster Gear again until we figure out how ot change it.

Fall Pep Rally
As you can see above and below - the BHS Fall Pep Rally changed its format a little bit. Above the fall coaches played blind-folded musical carpet squares for a chance to win their team a pizza party. Sherry Rarey and the volleyball team were the victors. Below is Taylor Carpenter playing one of the Minute to Win It games. The Bruin Boosters gave out $150 in gas cards as six of the BHS student-athletes successfully completed their tasks.
