Join us for our Tee Up for Boosters Golf Scramble, hosted by the Ellsworth Boosters! With school funding often limited, events like this help us bridge the gap and ensure our students have the opportunities, equipment, and experiences they deserve.

We are also looking for tee sponsors! If you or someone you know would be interested in sponsoring a tee for $100, we would greatly appreciate the support. Additionally, if you have connections with any local businesses that may be willing to contribute or sponsor, please reach out - every bit of help makes a difference for our students.
