Last Friday, we recognized Farmers Savings Bank for their incredibly generous $15,000 donation to the Central Lee Sports Boosters in support of our baseball and softball facility renovations.
To celebrate this contribution, FSB presented a “cash jersey” to Superintendent Dr. Andy Crozier, Sports Boosters President Scott Fogarty, and Athletic Director Tyler Bryant (not pictured). Representing Farmers Savings Bank were Jarad Weber, Clayton Davis, Ashley Wade, and Allyson Wooldridge.
We are extremely grateful for Farmers Savings Bank’s continued support of our student-athletes and programs. Your generosity helps us provide first-class facilities and opportunities for our students!
