 Booster Club

Organized in 1978, the Booster Club’s purpose is to provide support through service projects and fundraisers for Charlotte Latin’s athletic program and to promote good sportsmanship. During the school year, approximately 90% of the students in the Upper School participate on at least one athletic team. Teams are also available to the students of the Middle School, including the sixth grade on a limited basis. Membership in the Booster Club offers an opportunity for parents to support these students actively by volunteering to work with various fundraising and service projects. Membership is on a family basis with annual fees of $50 for regular membership and $125 for a Super Booster membership. Every Latin family is invited to join and participate in the Booster Club.

The Booster Club Board of Directors consists of the officers and committee chairpersons. The Board meets monthly for committee reports and to plan future Club activities. Club activities include the production and sale of a sports program book published each sports season, operation of concessions, ticket sales, sports calendars, an annual Fall Barbecue Bash, and other events designed to support the School and its athletic program.

Funds raised through the Club’s activities, membership fees, and special solicitations are used for projects that support the School’s athletic program. The Board consults the Headmaster and the Athletic Director when considering project funding. These School administrators regularly attend Board meetings. The Booster Club generally supports one major project each year. Some major projects completed to date are: the installation of a competition-quality all-weather track, the renovation and resurfacing of the tennis courts, along with additional seating; a field house and lighting for Patten Stadium; a new wood floor for Belk Gymnasium, and the construction of the Beck Student Activities Center and the South Campus Athletic Facility.

The Booster Club also provided funds for smaller projects, such as purchasing the bleachers for the MAC Pool on the Charlotte Latin campus, new high jump, pole vault, and wrestling mats, renovation of the gym concession area, trophy cases, new baseball dugouts, and new scoreboards.
