Boosters support Quincy trips in 2008-09
   GHS' athletes got to ride charter buses to Quincy for a number of trips this past school year thanks to the generosity of the Booster Club. Under the plan, qualifying trips were subsidized by the Boosters, who will picked up the additional costs above the normal busing costs to the District.
