Scoreboard Sponsors Needed

Culbreth Middle School Athletics is seeking business sponsors to support an important capital project: Installing two new LED scoreboards for our outdoor athletic facilities.

We are reaching out to local businesses and our community for sponsorship opportunities to help make this project a reality. Your support will directly enhance the experience for our student-athletes and spectators while making a lasting impact on our athletics program.

Football scoreboard is $12,000 and looking for 3 sponsors before ordering to cover the cost.

Baseball/Softball is between $6,000 and $8,000 and looking for 2/3 sponsors to cover the cost.

If you or someone you know is interested in sponsoring this project, please don’t hesitate to reach out for more details, AD Matt Dixon, mdixon@chccs.k12.nc.us
