The Jefferson Athletic Booster Club held their first meeting of the year Tuesday and elected officers for the 2020-2021 school year.
The club had announced the meeting in the DAWG Pound FaceBook group at the end of last week with a note indicating they needed more people to be involved, or they might consider dissolving. Enough individuals were at the meeting to not make this necessary.
Officers for the 2020-21 school year are:
• President: Tolesia Davis
• Vice President: Shannon Burns
• Vice President: Trey Jackson
• Secretary: Courtney Hamilton-Blanton
• Treasurer: Carrie Schwartz
Memberships are still available for this year. Individuals are $10, or $15 for a couple.
JABC provides support for 7-12th grade athletics and a scholarship at the end of every school year. Projects include: Football Program; Painting the Field before home games; Baseball/Softball Concessions; Setup of the Bulldog Tunnel at football games; funding various requests from the athletic department for equipment; and the annual Athletic Banquet at the end of the year.
