The hard part is finding enough people that want to put in the work.

Boosters run the concessions at PNG football games. Band does visitor side and Athletic does home side. THEY make it happen. You can't beat a GOOD Booster club. If run right, it helps the kids tremendously.

In small towns w/o much industry and few local business folk,the locals get swamped for donations from youth-high school activities along w/the many local golf tournament fundraisers/children services organizations/local rodeo/kick-off dances/youth groups football/softball/baseball/cheer/band/uil events/hs fishing now & on and on the list grows.Getting volunteers to work concessions,schedule fund raising events to earn monies as a support group for a school district is the hard part.Example=varsity or jr high track meet=approx 12 hrs of concession work,equivalent hrs of working over 3 home fb games.What can an individual do to help that have kiddos in atheletics?If your child from jr high thru high school is playing on a particular night=watch them,volunteer to work a shift another game or lend a helping hand during halftime activites.At Dayton on home side=Band Boosters have the largest single concession@the main entry on the s/w side,Dayton all sports booster club the smallest concession stand w/smoked turkey legs/links/boudan tent on the s/e home side near dressing rooms,teachers assoc has all the visitor concessions.Game ticket sales go into a general fund=that doesn't mean $ spent goes toward atheletics alone as one would think.**Name a great Booster Club=Nederland has to be brought up in the conversation=I've met some of those great supporters/club president who invited me/Buddy Garrity to their home tailgate party after a game(the whole block around the stadium)=they do it up well,Congrats
