Next Friday, 10/20, are the last regular season games for our 9th grade and Varsity football teams at Bulldog Stadium! We, the Algona Bulldog Booster Club, are calling on all of you - the Algona Community - to come together and volunteer at the concession stand as a way to show your support for the Cram Family. The Booster Club will be donating all profits from the evening's concession sales to the Cram Memorial Fund at Iowa State Bank, as well as placing donation buckets at our concession windows, tailgate and Club House Store.
Please use this SignUp link to indicate where you can help https://signup.com/go/dnWkReA
We have 28 volunteer spots to fill between 3:30pm - 9:30pm, so grab your friends, families and neighbors as we continue to rally around the Cram Family! Please spread the word!
Go Bulldogs and GO ALGONA!
