News and Information

Spirit Wear Now Available in Scrip Office

Last spring, the SMSA Booster Closet closed after years of successful management by lead volunteers Teresa Krueger and Carol Hyland who had selflessly dedicated countless hours to inventory management, opening the store for home games (and other events), hauling gear to home football games and much more. 

 

Since the closing, SMSA has been working to look for and provide an alternative location here on campus that offers greater opportunities to families and friends to view and purchase SMSA Spirit Wear.  The Scrip Office has provided that perfect location with dedicated hours (Monday, Wednesday and Friday 8 a.m. – 12 p.m. and Tuesday and Thursday 12 p.m. – 4 p.m.) and volunteers.

 

Our spirit wear program is managed in partnership with Hoppers who has agreed to increase the offerings/selections at both their storefront as well as here at SMSA.  We invite you to stop by the Scrip Office to view and purchase your SMSA spirit wear now that we are up and running (NOTE: as with Scrip, only cash or checks are accepted).

 

Happy shopping, come and get your Ledger gear!

Loaves 4 Learning: Clip UPC’s from Country Hearth and Village Hearth products and turn them in at the South Hall office, North Hall office or the Scrip office.  Each UPC is worth .05 cents.
