Breakfast Option:
Parents have the opportunity to enroll their sons in the Breakfast Option, allowing them to enjoy a free breakfast at AHS at 8:00 AM before heading to Wescott Field for club activities. Don't forget to select the Breakfast Option on the registration form if you want your son to start the day with a nutritious meal!
Feet Healthy and Happy:
Daily physical activity is a vital part of BOT Club. Ensure your child wears good-fitting athletic shoes to support their foot development. Running in sandals, “Crocs” or other shoes not designed for physical activity has the potential to damage the development of the foot, causing pain in the future. We'll collaborate with community partners to provide athletic shoes to participants in need.
