South O’Brien Athletic Booster Club

The South O’Brien Athletic Booster Club is a community-based organization that supports the athletic programs at our school.  The Athletic Booster Club was organized to help offer financial assistance to the needs of the South O’Brien Athletes.  The Athletic Boosters raise money by sponsoring various projects during the school year.

Athletic Booster Club meetings will be posted on the school activity calendar and will be held at 6:30 pm in the High School Library

A BIG thank you to everyone who contributed to or participated in the 4th annual SOHS Athletic Booster Golf Tournament on August 18th!  This was our big annual event to raise money for the purchase of new uniforms for the athletes and every penny helps.  This year we were able to raise over $11,000 to put towards new uniform purchases.  A banner will be displayed outside the football field, and moved indoors for basketball season, displaying the generosity of all our great supporters.  Take a look at the awesome people and businesses that helped our event be a success and tell them THANKS next time you see them.  Also a shout out to the Paullina Golf Course Board for once again donating the use of their course to our cause…we really appreciate it!

THANKS for your support and GO WOLVERINES!!!
