BOOSTER NEWS
Welcome Back!
On behalf of the Analy High School Boosters Club Board I want to welcome you to the 2008/2009 school year! Analy High remains one of the top high schools in Sonoma County, due in part, to strong community support. We invite you to be active, and get involved, in some aspect of the Analy culture that affects your student.
Our mission is to provide financial support for Analy Athletics, Academics, and Extra-Curricular Programs. In a sense, the AHSBC operates as a Home and School Club or PTA. Funds are raised in support of athletics, as well as teacher/classroom grants for instructional support, site improvement projects, technology, vocational education, the visual and performing arts and Analy Project Graduation.
Contrary to popular belief, the Analy Booster Club does not just fund athletics. The Analy Booster Club is one of the few booster groups in the area to divide its funds equally between athletics and programs that affect your students' academics, achievements and campus life.
Last year, the Analy Booster Club raised approximately $50,000. Over the past twelve years, the Analy Booster Club has contributed over $640,000 to the school, not to mention thousands of hours of volunteer service to support Analy events. Funds are raised through events such as concession stand operations at athletic events, our annual membership drive, spirit apparel sales, business partnerships, the Apple Blossom Pancake Breakfast, the annual Tiger Classic Golf Tournament and e-Scrip contributions.
Again, I sincerely hope you and your child experience the best Analy High School has to offer! Go Tigers!
Sincerely,
Greg Johnson, Booster Club President

Analy High School Booster Club
The Analy Booster Club is made up of parents, businesses, and community-minded individuals who volunteer to raise and donate funds to enhance Analy High School programs. Last year, the Analy Booster Club's individual and business memberships, concession stands, golf tournament, clothing program, pancake breakfast, and other fundraisers raised over $60,000.00! These funds were distributed to a variety of academic and athletic programs per teacher requests. This year our goal is to raise even more! You can help by becoming a Booster member and by volunteering to work on our fundraisers.
