You can nominate someone for the St. Helens Sports Booster Club’s Hall of Fame. Nominees can be made in one of four categories:
• Modern athletes. This category is for athletes who graduated from St. Helens High School four to 15 years ago that were named first- or second-team all-state in their respective sport.
• Veteran athletes. This category is for athletes who graduated from SHHS at least 15 years ago, or who have, as a member of our community, demonstrated athletic ability warranting their consideration as a member of the Hall of Fame.
• Supporter/sponsor. This category is for individuals in the community who have supported, encouraged, and advanced the athletic programs of the City of St. Helens and the local schools over time.
• Teams. This category is for teams that have excelled and earned state championships at least four years before their nomination.
The Booster Club has inducted members into the Hall of Fame annually since 1983. Beginning in 2024, the Hall of Fame induction will occur every other year.
You can make your nomination online at sthelensboosters.org/hall-of-fame, or submit a nomination form to SHHS Athletic Director Ted Hirning.
Nominees are due by September 30, 2024, for 2025 inductees. The Hall of Fame Induction Dinner will take place in June of 2025.
About the St. Helens Sports Booster Club
The St. Helens Sports Booster Club is a 501(c)3 organization. All of the proceeds they get through donations or initiatives like the concession stand go right back to the middle and high school to support athletics programs.
Each season, the Booster Club gives $850 to each team, through a donation they’ve named “The Coaches’ Wishlist.” These funds can go toward anything a given program needs, as long as it is going to be something that can be used in future years and the entire team benefits from it.
The St. Helens Sports Booster Club is made up of around 28-30 members, according to Tolles. While those are the actual membership numbers, Tolles said that they also enjoy participation from many volunteers who help make running sporting events, fundraisers, and the concession stand possible.
“We’re running at about 30 members, and it’s great, but we have so many more volunteers. You don’t have to be a booster member to volunteer in the concession stand or our annual auction; you can participate in other ways,” Tolles said.
Booster Club membership is paid, and there are different tiers. Paying for a Booster Club membership directly supports the athletic programs of both the middle and high schools.
