Summary

The Athletic Director reported 140 students participating in fall sports, outlined cooperating districts' participation, and described that roughly 100 athletes self-paid activity fees while others used scholarships or crowdfunding tools.

The Athletic Director reported fall student-athlete counts by sport and stated, "for a total of 140 fall Sports athletes." He outlined co-op participation numbers (one from Cardwell, six from Harrison, five from Willow Creek, four from homeschool and 124 from Whitehall) and described payment patterns for activity fees: about 100 athletes had self-paid, six used a Golden Junction scholarship, and several families were exploring or using SnapRaise crowdfunding to cover fees.

The director said that while students had opportunities to fundraise (community events were held through the summer), few had signed up to cover their full activity fee through those events. The report also noted homecoming is scheduled Sept. 16–21 with specific games on Sept. 20 and 21 and that a community bonfire remains contingent on fire department approval.
