SCHS Press Box Needs Advertisers

One of the first things you notice as you arrive at a Fightin’ Irish football game is the press box located at Swisshelm Field- Dr. Harvey Michael Track. A few years ago, the old press box had become unusable due to deterioration in the floors and ceilings. The new press box is larger and completely maintenance free. In addition, new braces were installed, a new sound system and reinforcements were made to the existing bleachers and fencing. Funding for the project was provided by the SCHS Booster Club, SCS, and individual sponsorships/advertising. Please help us pay off the remaining $8300 needed to complete payment for this project.

How do you help? Great question, the answer is simple: advertise. Now the new press box and reinforced fencing has plenty of advertising space, and we would like nothing more than to fill it with OUR families businesses, or just family supporters. Here are the options. This is a great way to get your name out there and support our Fighting Irish. For more Information call 417-865-5567 or download the sign-up form.
