RELATIONS WITH BOOSTER ORGANIZATIONS -- GUIDELINES

The RSU 1 Board of Directors recognizes the Boosters Club Boys/Girls All Sports Organization for the purpose of fund-raising. Other clubs and organizations will take reasonable precautions not to identify themselves as having School Department or Board of Directors sponsorship.

All school-sponsored programs and all personnel assigned to those programs will function under the authority and control of the RSU 1 Board.

All school-sponsored programs, current or proposed, must be approved by the RSU 1 Board.

All personnel assigned to school-sponsored programs must first be nominated by the Superintendent and then approved by the Board.

Methods of funding for school-sponsored programs must meet guidelines approved by the Board.

The funds of clubs, organizations, or other special interest groups will not be used to finance or otherwise employ personnel for school-sponsored programs, unless approved by the Board. Further, the same funds will not be used to award gifts to school personnel for services that fall within the normal course of their duties and employment.

The Boosters Club is granted permission to operate concessions under the following conditions:

A. The Club will secure and continue products and liability insurance.

B. The Club will assume costs of upkeep of concession equipment required by normal use and/or due to damage occasioned during the Club use.

C. The Club will operate its concession for all athletic functions (the school and/or school student groups, or other organizations, to operate the concession for other purposes with permission of the superintendent).

D. This agreement will be subject to review at the discretion of the Board.
