Belmont Boosters To Take To The Links Supporting High School Sports

The Belmont Boosters Club, a volunteer community organization that has supported Belmont High School athletics since the 1940s, will be hosting a Golf Tournament on Monday, May 20 at 9 a.m. at Hopkinton Country Club. 

Proceeds from the tournament will go to the Boosters. Cost to participate in the tournament is $150/player. This includes golf, cart, driving range, a continental breakfast and buffet lunch. In addition, lots of great prizes will be raffled during lunch. 

The Boosters' mission is to provide funding for items that are outside the athletic budget. Traditionally, Boosters have recognized every varsity athlete at BHS by awarding the player a letter jacket.

However, the Boosters' contributions go far beyond rewarding individual athletes. For example, Boosters contributed towards the purchase of the new football and softball scoreboards, the wrestling clock, the Hockey Rink P.A. systems, a new trophy case, banners that adorn the field house, the seasonal athletic awards nights and the team captain leadership program. In the past six years alone, the Boosters have donated over $130,000 to the athletic programs at Belmont High School.  

Anyone interested in participating in the tournament or being a sponsor can contact Mike Pellegrini (617-901-5244, mpellegrini@verizon.net) or Jim Reynolds (617-504-4010, james.reynolds@spring.com).
