About the Hinsdale Central Booster ClubThe Booster Club is a service organization that has been in existence since 1951. Our membership is comprised of parents, community members, and faculty. We support athletics, academic teams, drama, art, music, student leadership organizations, and special interest school clubs. BOOSTERS IS EVERYONE! We meet at Hinsdale Central on the first Wednesday of the month and all are welcome. Please feel free to call with any questions or suggestions. A Boosters Membership entitles you, your spouse, and children free admission to all regularly scheduled school sponsored home athletic events. (Tournament games are exempt). BONUS: NO WAITING IN LINE TO PURCHASE TICKETS AT THE GAMES! Why Join Boosters? I Don't Have an Athlete!
We still hear from too many people that The Booster Club is just for families with athletes. Yes we do support athletics at Hinsdale
Central, BUT we also support academic teams, drama, music, art, student leadership organizations and school clubs.
The Booster Club is made up of families who believe that school sponsored extra curricular activities play an important role in
the development and well being of our high school students. The Booster Club provides many "extras" in extra curricular
activities beyond that which school budgets can fund. One of the benefits for parents who
actively participate in the Booster Club is the opportunity to get to know other parents,
as well as the opportunity to develop personal relationships with many wonderful people who serve
on the faculty at Hinsdale Central. 2006-2010 Grants
 Where does the money come from?The Booster Club raises funds through membership dues ($60), concession sales
at football games, the sale of “spirit attire” and other special events. The Booster Club
held a brunch in both 2009 and 2010 to raise funds, and this year we are sponsoring
"Second City Spears the Red Devils", a fundraiser, and a fun event for students, staff, parents and the
Hinsdale Community. Where does the money go?
Every fall, any school team or organization can request fund through
a grant application. Grant distributions have included the following groups:
The Booster Club also contributes to the Tournament Fund and awards several senior scholarships. In addition, Hinsdale Central teams, clubs, and organizations can earn additional funds for their individual groups by participation in our “Shared Profits” program whereby different groups help out with the concessions and other projects. How can I help?
