Have you been thinking about Christmas shopping or even Graduation gifts? You could be the owner of a beautiful, brand new quilt.

The Italy Athletic Booster Club has a wonderful treat for you. A beautiful, handmade quilt is the subject of a fundraiser you can be a part of. For a mere $5, you can purchase a chance for this quaint bedding. The quilt is made from previous Italy Gladiator Shirts from all different clubs. Buying a ticket will help the Boosters raise funds for athletic scholarships or equipment needed for all sports. It is a perfect gift to Italy Alumni or the current student for graduation.

The drawing will be held at halftime at Homecoming. This quilt was donated for the fundraiser by Lanelle Riddle, who owns Lanelle’s Tee Shirt Quilts. For more information about her quilts, please email at [email protected].

Also, the next home game is Homecoming, October 24, and you might want to purchase a sweatshirt to keep away from the cold. The shirts are on sale for $12. They can be purchased at volleyball home games at the concession stand or the Booster Club table.

Go Gladiators!
