Welcome to the Glenbard West Boosters website. Thanks to the efforts of many Boosters Board members, we can now leverage technology to better keep you updated on Booster events and how you can get involved at West.

The Boosters Club is primarily a fundraising organization. We are proud to boast of over 550 members and we have a 60-member Board that plans the various Boosters-sponsored fundraising and service projects. The funds are used to enhance athletic, co-curricular and academic programs that enrich our students' experience at West. And, we have a big impact: in the past seven years, over $770,000 was raised and disbursed thanks to the on-going generosity of families and merchants in the GW community.

Another important function of the Boosters group is to provide service at West events, and you will find Booster members working all year long. During Homecoming weekend, Boosters are flipping pancakes at the Pancake Breakfast, manning the Friday night bonfire, and then chaperoning the dance on Saturday. At the "Pack the Place" winter sports extravaganza, we are serving up steaming plates of pasta, giving special recognition to athletes and students that make West proud, and promoting West spirit by selling Glenbard Gear sportswear. In the Spring, the Boosters sponsor the Senior Showcase fashion show.

Although Booster members are seemingly everywhere, we want to encourage every parent, alum and Glen Ellyn resident to consider joining the Glenbard West Boosters Club.

It is easy to become a Boosters member: Simply click on the "Join the Boosters" link at left and select the most appropriate option for your needs. Remember that your generous donations and personal involvement make a big difference in enriching the students' experience at West.

If you are interested in learning more about Boosters, or have an interest in joining the Board or getting involved in a specific activity, please email or call me directly at (630) 709-2834. I am eager to share the good news about the organization and find a way for you to help the kids!

So, join Boosters…get involved, make a difference, meet some great new people, and…have fun!

Go West!
