BOOST KICKS OFF THE 2019-2020 SCHOOL YEAR
The BOOSTERS participated in a leadership enrichment event with the minor-league baseball team, the Mississippi Braves. It was fun all around and was the first time the students and parents attended a minor-league baseball game.
Earlier this year, the Covington County Boosters participated in a banking seminar where they were taught the basics of balancing a check book and other banking principles. After having a terrific Mexican lunch, the Boosters went to see the Lady Eagles of USM battle the Lady Monarchs of ODU. During the halftime festivities, the Boosters were invited to shoot free throws and competed in a chicken catching contest. It was enjoyable all around!
