BECOME A TIGER BACKER GENERAL NEWS (7/8/2010) |
Welcome to the 2010-2011 Riverside Community College academic and athletic school year. I'm honored to be your incoming President and to have Randy Hord as my vice president. I played basketball at RCC for Coach Dave Waxman and then went on to graduate from Cal Poly San Luis Obispo. Randy also attended RCC and was an all-everything football player during his time as a Tiger and eventually went on to play football at USC.
It is interesting to note that my father, Clyde "Smitty" Smith, was a longtime member of the Tiger Backers and past president, as was Randy's father Roy Hord. The goal of the Tiger Backers has always been to help our student-athlete compete at their highest level, and under Randy and I we will make sure the Tiger Backers continue to help our student-athletes reach their dreams on and off the field.
Attending Tiger Backer meetings and games with my dad, since I was 10 years old, has shown me firsthand the success stories that the Tiger Backers have helped create. I invite you to help us continue to make great things happen here at our community college. If you have been a Tiger Backer in the past, please continue the journey. If you are considering becoming part of the team, please accept this invitation to join a great support group.
To become a Tiger Backer, mail your $100.00 check payable to the:
Tiger Backers
c/o Barry Meier, Athletic Director
4800 Magnolia Ave., Riverside, CA 92506-1299.
You will receive your Tiger Backer membership card in 2 to 3 weeks. |
