How the Funds We Raise Are Spent

In the 2023-2024 school year, we had 21 boys and 19 girls participating in the Berthoud High School golf program. The incredible growth that has taken place since Coaches Hunn and Perry came to BHS in the spring of 2019 (when there were a total of 8 players for both teams) has made fundraising a priority in order to run a quality program.

We want our player’s parents as well as all Spartan Golf Classic sponsors and participants to know how we are spending the funds raised by the golf tournament and the other fundraising we ask the players to perform during the year.
