Bandera Athletics Facilities Improvement Team
Everyone is invited to the next scheduled meeting for the organization upstairs at TJs at the Old Forge on Sunday, Aug. 7, at 6:30 p.m.
The organization was formed to help improve the athletic facilities in the Bandera ISD that are not budgeted or slated for upgrades via fundraising and donations.
The athletic facilities upgrades will benefit Bulldog sports teams as well as band, cheer, dance and JROTC by reducing injuries and giving the teams the ability to practice all the time on the same surfaces they will by competing on.
If you want to find out more about the team’s mission or want to get involved in making things better for local students, come by the meeting or join the team.
