High school football teams will be starting preseason practices soon, and four East Cobb booster clubs have scheduled fundraising events.
The first comes tomorrow, Friday, Jan. 26, the Lassiter Trojan Golf Classic, which has a shotgun start at 8 a.m. at Bradshaw Farms Golf Club in Woodstock. The cost is $125 per player or $500 per team, and there will be a closest-to-the-pin competition, as well as awards and a luncheon.
You can get more information and sign up at the Lassiter Touchdown Club website. This year the Trojans are welcoming a new coach, Sean Thorn.
On Monday, the Walton Touchdown Club is holding its annual golf outing at Indian Hills Country Club. That gets underway with a shotgun scramble at 10 a.m., and the day-long event concludes with a happy hour and silent auction, as well as prizes and awards. The cost is $150/person or $500/team.
The Kell Touchdown Club is holding a Casino Night fundraiser on Saturday, Aug. 17, from 7-10 p.m. at Transfiguration Catholic Church. This is the second year for the event, which costs $25 a person and is limited to adults 18 years old and older. The ticket price includes hors d’oeuvres, drink tickets and prizes, and raffle tickets also will be available for purchase at the event.
