We have incredible news to share with the Warrior Run community—news that celebrates our past and builds our future!
We are thrilled to announce that Watson Excavating has pledged $50,000 to name the Warrior Run High School Gymnasium! This transformational gift comes from co-owners Lynn Watson (Class of '70) and son Eric Watson (Class of '04)—two proud Warrior Run graduates with deep wrestling history in that very gym. This 3rd generation company has followed a strong motto as Lynn states, "We are strongly committed to our community to enrich the lives of others."
For the Watson family, this isn't just a donation. It's a homecoming. It's a tribute to the place where they competed, grew, and became Defenders. Their generosity honors every athlete who has stepped onto that floor and every student who will follow.
Now It's Your Turn: Join the "100 for $100" Campaign
INSPIRED BY THE WATSON FAMILY'S LEADERSHIP, we're launching a momentum campaign to upgrade a vital capability: our Auditorium Projection System.
HERE'S THE OPPORTUNITY: We need 100 donors to give $100 each to raise $10,000 towards a $30,000 state-of-the-art projection system. The Warrior Run Community Education Foundation is committing to cover the remaining $20,000+ beyond the donor goal.
This new system will serve WR in many ways for years to come - transform graduation ceremonies, instrumental and choral performances, theater productions, school assemblies, guest presentations, community use AND make family movie nights possible.
The Watson family showed us what's possible when WE invest in Warrior Run. Now we're asking YOU to join them.
Join by February 1, 2027 to be considered part of this campaign. Earn 2 free tickets to a family movie night with your $100 gift.
BE ONE OF THE 100 Will YOU be ONE of the 100 donors to make this happen? Your $100 gift - combined with 99 others will create something extraordinary for our students and community. Be part of this historic giving moment for Warrior Run. The time is now.
