Husky Fest: A Community Effort Supporting Our Students
On Sept 2026, Husky Fest brought our community together for golf, generous giving, and a shared commitment to Mammoth High School students. With $119,000 in recorded total income, this year’s event demonstrated how much local businesses, families, volunteers, and supporters can accomplish together.
The Husky Fest partnership between the MHS Booster Club and Mammoth Man’s Club makes Husky Fest more than a single day of fundraising. Together, the organizations provide a shared event that gives every team an equal opportunity to seek sponsorships and build support for its own program.
The goal is straightforward: help teams help themselves. Athletes, coaches, and parents can approach supporters, sell sponsorships, and direct those contributions toward their teams. A common fundraising platform gives programs a way to turn their outreach and effort into meaningful financial support. Funds raised through the event also support the Booster Club and athletic department, extending the impact across our MHS.
Community Generosity in Action
This year Husky Fest raised $42,360 in team-designated sponsorships and donations, plus $1,700 in general contributions. Golf registrations contributed another $36,000, with 36 foursomes filling the tournament roster.
The raffle generated $19,060, while mulligan sales added $2,625. Every sponsorship, donated prize, registration, and ticket purchase contributed to the event’s success.
We are deeply grateful to the businesses and individuals who answered our students' requests for support. Whether you sponsored a hole, purchased a business or corporate sponsorship, donated a raffle item, entered a golf team, or made a personal contribution, you helped create opportunities for our students.

Those individual efforts are the foundation of this event.
