The Oakridge Athletic Booster Club, The Owl Club, is made up of individuals and businesses that support the school's Athletic Programs. The funds raised are used to supplement existing sports programs and benefit all Oakridge athletes, both girls and boys.
A group of dedicated volunteers ensures The Owl Club concession stand is open for home games as a service to our athletes, families and the visiting teams. The Owl Club even has a mobile concession cart providing service to the spectators in the bleachers. The “Spirit Shack” is open at each home football game and proceeds of these sales are used to purchase needed equipment and necessities for our teams.
The Owl Club has purchased all kinds of athletic equipment that supports our athletic teams and physical education programs. These items include bleachers and benches for the athletic fields, awnings for the softball and field hockey fields, a score keeper’s table, sideline shelters, a softball pitching machine, an end zone camera, blocking dummies, a lineman shoot and an electronic timing device for our track team.
The Owl Club also provides food, volunteers and/or support for:
- Oakridge Homecoming
- Alumni Games Day
- Lower School Field Day
- Dinners for our teams traveling to out of town games
- Dinner for Officials for all the home football games
- Meet the Coaches night in the fall
- Three (3) Athletic Awards Banquets – fall sports, winter sports and one for spring sports, each year to honor the participating student athletes.
During the winter sports season, The Oakridge School hosts the Oakridge Basketball Classic, our single largest on-campus student event of the school year. The Owl Club is a full sponsor of this event and provides the program plus food and drinks for all the volunteers, officials and staff. The Owl Club also provides drinks and snacks for the Owls Baseball Tournament each spring.
The Owl Club welcomes new members and volunteers. Most importantly, we have great fun attending the games and showing our school spirit for our fine athletes and coaches and for the entire Oakridge family.
GO OWLS!
