The Boosters would like to congratulate all the College Park athletes on another great year! The Boys & Girls Cross country teams won NCS championships and participated in CIF state championships finishing 9th and 16th respectively.  Our football, basketball, boys golf, girls softball and boys wrestling teams all made it to the NCS playoffs!  We also saw a great number of our athletes demonstrate their dedication to academics by earning scholar athlete honors. We also witnessed a large number of our athletes being honored by being placed on DVAL All-League teams.  We should all be very proud of our College Park athletes!

As an organization we had a very successful year.  Our primary fundraising events (crab feed and golf tournament) were very successful and a lot of fun!  We worked closely with the United Mount Diablo Athletic Foundations and played a big role in helping to fund high school sports.  The Boosters helped our teams by fully funding the athletic trainer and providing much needed equipment and supplies.

As you enjoy your summer break please be sure to check back on our website often.  We will have information on upcoming meetings, events and other this of interest to our athletic community.

Go Falcons!

Operation Clean Sweep a Major Success!

Over the July 17th weekend the boosters cleaned out the storage container.  While it was hard work we were able to vastly improve the organization of the container.  Mara was able to procure about 14 new shelves (thanks Mara!) that totally made a huge difference.  A big thank you goes out to those who came out to help!
