THIBODAUX, La. -- Head Track & Field/Cross Country Coach
Stefanie Slekis is delighted to officially launch The Record Setters Club on Thursday morning, solidifying a booster organization fully dedicated to supporting and enhancing the student-athlete experience of Nicholls track & field/cross country programs.
"We are thrilled to launch The Record Setters Club, the official Booster Club for Nicholls Track & Field and Cross Country," Slekis said. "Over the past three years, I have been amazed by the alumni, local runners/walkers/cyclists and community members who have supported our programs. This support has come in many forms, including companies and individuals committing as donors for our two home events -- the Colonel 5k & Nicholls XC Invitational -- joining the momentum on Give N Day, attending Nicholls Athletics fundraising events and the donation of generous gifts throughout the year, all of which have helped us provide the best student-athlete experience possible.
"The goal of The Record Setters Club is to more formally organize this group of supporters and enable us to provide a unique set of benefits to keep them better connected to our programs. I'm looking forward to the time we will get to spend with club members each month and how we can connect them more closely with our teams to show how their generosity is helping our student-athletes reach our team and individual goals."
The Record Setters Club will feature two membership levels with multiple perks and benefits, including one-on-one meetings with the coaching staff, opportunities for attending practice, detailed specifics of the squad's training progress and much more.
According to Director of Athletics
Jonathan Terrell, the addition of The Record Setters Club to the Nicholls Athletics booster profile offers yet another touchstone for one of the lesser-seen programs to connect with the community and alumni fan bases.
"The rate at which Coach Slekis continues to develop and promote her cross country and track & field programs astounds me on a near-daily basis, and the Record Setters Club is yet another example of her dedication to excellence," Terrell said. "From the Colonel 5k to the Nicholls XC Invite, Coach Slekis has sought to improve the community here in Thibodaux, and I'm thrilled to partner with her in launching this club aimed at raising the awareness as well as funding her terrific athletic programs."
