Fall Fundraising
We are off to a good start this fall with our fundraising efforts to purchase new helmets! Our Comedy Night in October raised just over $1500! Thank you to everyone for coming and those that helped coordinate it. It was a super fun evening! Combined with our car raffle sales, we are about a third of the way there! The new helmets will cost a bit over $9,000 to purchase.

We have two more restaurant fundraisers to help us out! Treat yourself to lunch or dinner out and join us next Monday, 11/18 at Porky’s Pizza Palace. Boys Lacrosse will earn 20% of your food eat in/take out/delivery order, just show them the flyer (http://teampages.com/clubs/4301/documents/520928). If you haven’t been there, check out their menu (https://www.porkyspizzapalace.com/menu/), they offer more than just pizza.

Our next restaurant fundraiser will be at Sweet Tomatoes on Wednesday 12/4 so mark your calendars.

See you next Monday at Porky’s!
