The Breakfast of Champions returns for 2023!
The Ballard High School Foundation and the Ballard Athletic Booster Club are teaming together to sponsor the Breakfast of Champions at 9:30 a.m. on Saturday, October 7 in the Ballard High School Commons. The special event and pancake breakfast will be the morning after the homecoming football game vs. Seattle Prep.
The program’s focus is “Empowering Women Through Sports” and will include a keynote address from a local leader (TBA), and stories from current and recent Beavers whose successes have been influenced by their sports participation.
We’ll also be announcing the inaugural Sue Stimac Verduin Woman of Impact Award. Named after its first honoree, we’ll celebrate and award the tremendous accomplishments of Sue Stimac Verduin ’78 on and off the courts, and set the bar high for what future Beavers will aspire to accomplish.
Breakfast will be served family-style in the first floor lunchroom (Commons). Tables are available for groups of six ($500 VIP preferred seating, with access to Meet & Greet reception; $300 general admission). One coach/administrator and one student athlete will be seated at each table.
Mark your calendar to celebrate equity in sports on Ho’Co Saturday morning, gather your group and reserve your table for six here. Individual tickets (not guaranteed to be seated together!) will be available Aug. 1.
Sponsorships are available for businesses who want to support equity in access to sports. All event proceeds will support athletics and mental health resources for students at Ballard High School. Contact Dick Lee at rjlee@seattleschools.org
