The Northridge Athletic Boosters have extended an invitation to the community for their Annual Dinner Auction, scheduled for April 26, 2025. This event aims to raise funds in support of Northridge High School student-athletes. The announcement was made through a press release on April 16, 2025.
According to the Northridge Athletic Boosters, the Annual Dinner Auction will take place at the B Carr Pavilion located at the Hartford Fairgrounds. The event will commence at 5:00 pm and feature a signature pork chop dinner with chicken and vegetarian options available. Attendees can participate in casino-style games such as Human Slots, Plinko, Balloon Pull, and Wine Pull. Additionally, there will be silent and live auctions offering various items including gift cards, baskets, and high-value items. All proceeds from the evening are intended to support Northridge High School student-athletes by funding team uniforms, equipment, and athletic programs.
"This is our biggest fundraiser of the year, and it’s always a blast," said Doug Goodwin, Booster president. "Every ticket sold directly helps our athletes succeed on and off the field."
The Northridge Local School District serves approximately 1,200 students across four schools with a centralized campus that offers modern facilities and a low student-teacher ratio for personalized learning. According to the district's information, it spans three counties providing a rural yet connected lifestyle near Columbus. It is recognized for its support of military families through the Purple Star designation. Northridge High School offers Advanced Placement (AP) courses, gifted programs, extracurricular activities, and partnerships with C-TEC that provide students access to career-focused education. Students also participate in successful FFA (Future Farmers of America), music, and sports programs within a community that values tradition, safety, and student achievement.
The Northridge Athletic Boosters focus on promoting and supporting athletic programs recognized by the Northridge School Board. Their primary goal is to provide athletic uniforms through fundraising efforts. As a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, all funds raised by the Boosters are dedicated to benefiting Northridge athletics.
