Booster Club Spotlight: Richardson Pearce gets boost from support group

Booster Club SpotlightDave Campbell’s Texas Football, in partnership with All Star Inflatables, is recognizing booster clubs across the state of Texas to be featured under our Booster Club Spotlight. This week’s story is featuring the JJ Pearce High School Booster Club in Richardson. The concept of family is very important to the Pearce booster club; that’s why couples will sometimes share a position. Now co-presidents of the school’s booster club, John and Andre Roberts have been involved in the program over the past 20 years. Their working history includes membership, spirit and secretary positions before being named the presidents-elect last year. The Pearce booster club is doing some great things, and the co-presidents are at the forefront. Their main strategy is to reach students in the feeder schools so they can spread the high school’s great school spirit. According to Andre, it was a priority to get the word out about last weekend’s kickoff barbecue, so fans could get excited about the Mustangs’ upcoming season. Andre said the booster club gave away more than 2,500 hot dogs in two hours, plus chips and drinks on the side. Athletes from the school’s 19 teams spoke at the kickoff event and were accompanied by a performance from the school band. The booster club is already gearing up for their next event, as they will be hosting a tailgate party prior to this Friday’s home game against South Garland. There will be games for all in attendance and local restaurants will provide food. The school spirit will be alive and well in what is sure to be another successful JJ Pearce High School booster club event. Congratulations to John and Andre Roberts and the entire Pearce Booster Club on being recognized under the Dave Campbell’s Texas Football Booster Club Spotlight presented by All-Star Inflatables.
