Falcon Club Wins Drive for Schools

Look at what the Scotts Valley High Falcon Club did — parents and boosters raised $33,450 in sports pledges and donations, and took home the Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk Drive for Schools spirit trophy.

Scotts Valley High was the top earning high school, and the second highest earning school overall in Santa Cruz County.

“We broke our own personal best and had four of our families win prizes!” reported Falcon Club president Todd Hoffman.. n
