Here is one of our own, Doug Phillips, telling your Lebanon Optimists about the great work our Lebanon Booster Club has been lining up and knocking down. From the ashes of the old "Wigwam Wisemen", Doug and a dedicated group of boosters have revitalized the Lebanon Booster Club. They are holding events, coordinating signs and donations for sports, and signing up Booster Club members to raise funds for Lebanon sports and other LHS extracurriculars. Their goal is to eventually make sports and other extracurriculars free for any student that wants to participate. Message us to learn more about how you can help!
