Congratulations to the Blue Mountain Eagles for capturing the
2022 Championship!
The Eagles took first place in the overall Strength and Speed & Agility categories, but the
Tri Valley Bulldogs took first place in the new Passing Accuracy event!
Who can attend? This event is open to the public and it’s FREE to attend! We encourage family, friends, and the cheerleaders from each high school to attend and cheer on their school. You can visit the booths of our Partner Agencies to learn about all the great work happening in Schuylkill County. And, of course, there are food trucks!
What do I need to do to participate?
Participating teams are responsible for completing the application (one per team) & liability release forms (one per high school participant). Completed forms can be sent to the Schuylkill United way via fax: 570-622-7424, emailed to dircomrel@schuylkillunitedway.org, or mailed to 9 North Centre Street, Suite 301, Pottsville, PA 17901.
The High School Football Challenge is a fundraiser for our Nurse’s Pantry program. Nurse’s Pantries are now in every school district in Schuylkill County. In addition, we aim to raise student awareness about the Schuylkill United Way and our Partner Agencies.
Launched in 2020, the Nurse’s Pantry provides schools with hygiene items, lice kits, undergarments, district approved clothing, footwear, outerwear, and snacks. The Schuylkill United Way works with school nurses, principals, and guidance counselors to ensure students have access to these items and better equip them to succeed in school. There are now Nurse’s Pantries in every school district in our county!
We will again have a variety of food trucks in 2023!
