Bam Bams & Thundersticks! Hear Us Roar!

Bam Bams!

The new trend I have seen for student council fundraisers
and boosters this year are Bam Bams and, Thundersticks.
What are Bam Bams? You might ask... Well, they are the new way
of building spirit at an event or game.! They make noise along with
everyone yelling "GO TEAM GO!" Nothing does it like the like these awesome
Spirit Makers! Whether its these, shaking Pom Poms, or just showing school
spirit, they add enthusiasm and excitement to any recreation or sport event!
So get out there and make some Noise!

Glow Bams!

We've Got Spirit! How 'bout You!

Call me the "sport Mom."
If I'm not coaching one sport or the other, I spend my free time organizing team fundraising. I've had a lot of experience with kids, believe me! I have a teenager who is in dance and cheerleading, and a grade schooler who loves gymnastics, baseball and surfing! I have an edge, being in my profession, both as a mom and coach. I learned What is "hot" and what is not, in spirit wear. I want to stay up with the trends so that we will be successful! I held a fundraiser for my daughter's elementary school this year. Something that would raise School Spirit and get everyone involved. With the feedback from my two children, and, other moms, we came up with the idea of selling T-shirts, Hoodies, and Car Magnets. Since, carpooling is a major activity to and from school, I thought the car magnets were a great idea for the entire family. The school mascot is the "Mustangs." We choose a template and design and even added the school name on the sleeve of the hoodie! The options were endless! I would recommend thespiritzone.com for all schools, teams and clubs. They were very reasonable, quick and professional! Needless to say, our fundraising was an enormous success!
