Bricks and Benches

Here is your chance to leave your mark at Southern Garrett High School by purchasing an engraved brick paver or having your name attached to one of three custom built benches!

Our Bricks and Benches Seating Area at the main gym entrance at SGHS

We are very excited about our Bricks and Benches fundraising project.  It takes a lot of money to run a top notch program and the amount we receive from the BOE every year is never enough.  We must rely on this amazing community for support.  This project not only allows us to raise funds, but also offers our community the opportunity to advertise businesses and to honor Southern High School athletes, students, faculty members and friends (past and present) in a variety of ways.  The engraved paver seating area will be located at the main gym entrance at Southern High School.  This area sees enormous traffic on a daily basis and will provide excellent exposure for you and/or your business.



Add your name to one of these custom benches!

 Please consider helping us by becoming a sponsor.  There are many levels from which to choose and all money raised (in excess of construction costs) will be used to sustain our wrestling program at it's current high level.  We also hope to be able to develop a scholarship program for college-bound wrestlers.  Construction will take place this summer, with the help of former and current wrestlers and coaches and will be complete before school restarts in August.

Sample $50 Commemorative Paver
