The Mount Vernon Booster Club will be hosting our annual youth basketball tournament on Saturday, January 18 & Sunday, January 19. The inaugural tournament was a tremendous success! They raised over $16,000 for our basketball programs and the Booster Club.
This year they are looking to grow on those efforts and once again support our basketball programs, while also funding their commitment to the renovation of the Middle School gym. Quite simply, these efforts would not be possible without the support of our community members. Community members often ask, “How can I help or become involved?” Here is your chance! The Booster Club is reaching out to ask for your help/volunteer hours in staffing the tournament. The link below has opportunities to volunteer in the concession stands for the tournament and/or donate items that will be sold during the tournament.

If you are available, please sign up for a volunteer spot! If you can’t volunteer, please donate items to be sold at the concession stands! If you can’t do either, pass the word to people you know!
Your Booster Club has already done an incredible amount of work to get to this point, but we need YOUR help to finish the job.
Thank you in advance for your help in making this tournament a success!

Thank you for the opportunity to play! What an outstanding and moving holiday concert. The students and teachers should be very proud of their performances.
Great addition to the concert. They sounded awesome.
I think they should play all the time or have their own concert evening. They were fantastic.
Incredible quintet! Thanks for sharing your beautiful music with us! Made the concert even better!
You are so appreciated!
