BHS Bucket-A-Thon
This past Saturday, Battlefield High School Bobcats Basketball held our first ever Bucket-A-Thon event at the high school level and collectively raised $12,127.00 for their BHS Boosters AND for our Green & Gold Athletic Spirit Scholarships!!!
We are thrilled to announce our Bucket-A-Thon program and would LOVE to work with additional schools and organizations down the road. We believe that by partnering together we can make a difference for the programs we work with AND for athletes whose lives are forever changed by a childhood cancer diagnosis.
Learn more about our Green & Gold Athletic Spirit Scholarships here, the application period for our 2022 scholarships opens Feb. 1!

Thank you to our friend Niko’s dad Juan for joining us and sharing their families story with all of us. We know Juan touched many hearts and what he did isn’t always easy to do.
