BOOSTER CLUB

ABOUT

The Sports Booster Club impacts every Eagle sports program and promotes student development by providing resources and upholding the St. Thomas standards of honor and integrity.

Through generous contributions of tax-deductible advertising sponsorships in the annual award-winning Eagles’ Pride magazine along with income from Eagle home games concessions and merchandising sales, the Booster Club is able to make a difference. Be a part of our team by showing your support!

STUDENT/FAMILY TRIBUTES

Showcase your student with a RISING STAR TRIBUTE for freshmen, sophomores and juniors or a SETTING SUN SALUTE for seniors.

Half and full pages FAMILY/LEGACY ads can also be purchased to highlight individuals or groups of students. These are also ideal to celebrate families with a rich history associated with St. Thomas.
