Huskies Club begins Annual Membership Drive for 2010-11

The Huskies Club membership campaign has begun. The Michigan Tech Athletic Department is actively renewing and recruiting members for the 2010-2011 year. Membership is based on a fiscal calendar year beginning July 1 and ending June 30. The Huskies Club provides financial support for Michigan Tech student-athletes, ensuring that they have the best
possible opportunities to represent Michigan Tech in competition and in the classroom.

The Huskies Club is in its 54th year of supporting scholarships for Michigan Tech athletes. Whether your donation to the Huskies Club is an annual gift, major gift, or planned gift, you will receive immense benefits. However, the most important benefit is knowing the tremendous impact you are making on the student-athletes at Michigan Tech. With your generosity, we are able to operate an athletic department that is focused on preparing student-athletes to “Create the Future.”

Any gift of $100 or more to the Huskies Club or any individual athletic program will be acknowledged by the Huskies Club. The Huskies Club has five giving levels: Booster ($100-$174), Silver ($175-$299), Golden Huskies ($250-$499), Honorary Coaches ($500-$999) and Honorary Athletic Directors ($1000 and up). Remember enjoy the benefit of free
parking at home football, basketball and hockey games with a gift of $175.00 or more to the Huskies Club.

The main focus of this year’s membership drive is to increase donor participation as well as boost scholarships for student-athletes. Michigan Tech student-athletes have challenging expectations. Our student-athletes maintain tough academic standards, while providing entertainment and pride for our campus and community. By joining the Huskies Club you invest in the rich tradition of athletic and academic excellence that Michigan Tech is recognized for.
