To the editor:

The student athletes and coaches at Lake Linden Hubbell would like to thank the many parents, community members and local businesses that donated their time or made monetary donations to the first Fall Fundraiser Dinner held on Saturday, Oct. 16, at the Lakes Lounge, Off Shore Grill in Lake Linden.

The dinner was a huge success because of the many spirited, and dedicated parent volunteers and generous donations from local businesses. We plan to make this an annual event in the fall of every school year.

The Lake Linden Hubbell Sports Booster Club supports all athletics and athletes grades 7-12. Money raised by the Booster Club is used to purchase new uniforms for the teams plus all new equipment needed each season.

In addition to the hard-working volunteers, the night would not have been a success without the donations received from the following:
