All Sport Booster Club donates $51,538.82 to Rice Lake athletics
Summary
Booster‑club representatives presented a check showing $51,538.82 given to Rice Lake athletics for the 2025–26 school year and described multi‑year contributions that supplement district budgets for equipment, uniforms and facilities.
Representatives of the Rice Lake All Sport Booster Club presented the board with a summary of donations that will support district athletics next school year.
A district presenter announced the total for the 2025–26 year as $51,538.82, saying the funds come from sponsorships, concession stands and volunteer efforts and are directed back to Warrior athletic programs. “All of which goes back to our Warrior athletic programs,” the presenter said while identifying the total.
Mandy Fishman, identified in the meeting as the booster‑club president, said the donations reflect a community effort of families, alumni, businesses and concession volunteers and that the booster club has invested more than $180,000 into Rice Lake athletics over the past three years. She added the booster club has already allocated over $40,000 for the 2026–27 school year.
Board members acknowledged the donation and noted the district does not charge student athletes to play, a policy stakeholders said strengthens participation and community support. The presentation required no board action beyond the informational update.
