Oconomowoc Sports Booster Club

The Oconomowoc Sports Booster Club (OSBC) is an adult volunteer non-profit organization with a mission to work hard to support all sports at the intermediate and high school levels. We raise and donate funds to benefit all 31 sports programs offered at Oconomowoc High School. We work with the OHS Athletic Director, coaches, and school administration to provide additional coaches, clinics, programs, and equipment that may not otherwise be available. In the last six years, we have raised and donated almost $600,000, or $100,000 per year. We need your support and involvement to accomplish our goal of providing for non-budgeted needs and increasing the "spirit" at Oconomowoc area sporting events. We strongly encourage all Oconomowoc area families to become members.

Our organization consists of a Board of Directors that meets monthly to review goals, objectives, and financials. The organization works with multiple organizations throughout the community to communicate the needs of our student-athletes and provide opportunities for support and recognition. We welcome volunteers and participation from parents, students, and the community at large.

The Booster Club's Impact

OSBC is instrumental in providing financial resources to help fill the gaps that exist in our local athletic programming. Each year, the OSBC and numerous volunteers coordinate events, secure partnerships, and give time and resources that allow for the needs of our kids to be realized. We do this through fundraisers, concession stand food and beverage sales, donations, merchandise sales from the school store, “The Den”, and sponsorship support from local businesses and individuals.

Some of the many projects and initiatives that have been funded by OSBC include:

Cheerleading mats
Basketballs
