Thanks to all the players, coaches and parents who participated in Saturday’s coin drop. Special thanks also to the people in the EG Community and Walmart for helping Columbia Football. The $1,000+ , earned in a short 6 hours will go a long way to providing valueable equipment, uniforms and meeting the basic needs of the football program.
Columbia football will have the opportunity to coin drop at the East Greenbush Walmart on Saturday, August 21, 8 am to 6:30pm. This is a first time unique opportunity for Columbia Football to earn “free money” for our program. Players have practice on Saturday from 8 am to 12 pm. Players should shower and then report to Walmart for shifts of 30 minutes to 1 hour. Players should wear a Columbia Football shirt or anything Columbia.
Parents will be covered the 8 am -12 shift.
Please come at whatever time works best for your player and family. Any help or time that players can contribute is appreciated and the money earned will support all levels of Columbia football.
Columbia Football Family: Please be reminded that any checks for football need to be made payable to our non-profit arm: Friends of the Blue Gridiron.
Tuesday, 5-18 is our chance to vote yes to support our student-athletes-artists-kindergartners. While this may not be a perfect year, with 47.4 positions being cut, we will still have Athletics, Arts, Music, Kindergarten, AP and Electives, plus Math, Science, Social Studies, English, and Phys Ed. The tax increase is 3.55%
Proposition # 5 will give back the Team Room for our Athletes and the Arts Space to the Art Groups. With 73.4% state aid, the cost to us is minimal.
Please vote for 3 board candidates that match your interests.
Thank you for helping the students in this difficult year.
