Ponte Vedra Sharks Booster Club
Membership is entirely optional, but we would like to encourage everyone to join the Ponte Vedra Sharks Booster Club. The St. Johns County School District does not allocate funds to any county high school athletic programs and without them it would not be possible for us to compete. Of note, for every Track & Field team family that joins the Ponte Vedra Sharks Booster Club and designates their membership to the Track & Field team, the Track & Field team directly benefits with 85% of each membership going directly to the Track & Field team. The remaining 15% goes into a general fund. If at least 75% of Track & Field team families join the Ponte Vedra Sharks Booster Club, the Track & Field team gets 90% of each membership instead of 85%. This is why your membership is so important. Please fill out the 2018 -2019 Booster Membership form at -
