the whole Lock Haven Athletic Department within
the guidelines established by the NCAA and the
University.

· To belong to the Crimson
& White Athletics Club is an investment in the
youth of America and

visible
endeavors.

everyone associated with

Why
does Lock Haven Athletics need my support?
Lock Haven has many
wonderful stories to tell of academic and
athletic success for its letter winners. The
opportunity to attend college, get a college
degree, and play college sports is the dream of
many young people. Providing these opportunities
for young people is expensive. Very few
athletics programs are operated strictly on
university money. Lock Haven is no different.
Therefore, private support is crucial if Lock
Haven is to develop and grow a successful
athletic program and provide opportunities for
young people to reach their dreams.
Winning is exciting and
important to students, the community, and our
alumni and helps promote the school on a
national level.

satisfaction in supporting Lock Haven Athletics,

Lock Haven accept matching gift funds and how do
