BAWA Fundraisers Each year BAWA has several fundraisers to help cover the costs of the wrestling programs in the Boyertown area. Here are just some of the various fundraisers:
History of BAWA For a number of years, the concept of an all-inclusive umbrella organization had been discussed by several coaches in the district. One of the first attempts to create this organization occurred in 2001-02 when the youth program and the high school parents association met to discuss merging the two. Although that did not work out, the seed had been planted. During the 2003-04 season, the high school coaches had discussed the desire to create, organize and run a dual meet tournament at Boyertown Area Senior High. However, such an event requires large numbers of volunteers and support from the community. Thus, while the tournament was being organized, so was BAWA. By April 2004, all 10 teams for the 1st Annual Bear Duals were set as was the first meeting of BAWA. On June 22, 2004, BAWA was officially incorporated as a non-profit organization. Then, on February 9, 2005, BAWA was officially approved as a 501c3 tax exempt non-profit organization. Any questions? Contact Tracey Hager @ traceyhager2016@gmail.com |
