Last year, Amy Flaming led the charge to reinvigorate the Goessel school booster club which had dwindled to just a handful of people and businesses two years ago to 44 investors last year. The newly formed Goessel Bluebird Backers now seeks to support not only the athletic teams but also all clubs, teachers, academics and fine arts. Flaming serves as current president of the Goessel Bluebird Backers and continues to invest many hours into the organization and planning of fundraising events and support programs for every member of the Goessel community.

“My husband and I have three kids in the Goessel school system and love to be involved in supporting them and their peers.  The principal, Mr. Boden approached several parents in the spring of 2019 to see if we could breathe new energy into our current Booster Club.  We met and brainstormed through that summer and put together new opportunities for the community to support our school,” said Flaming. “The Goessel Bluebird Backers Booster Club is excited to support our high school students, teachers, classrooms, and activities; as well as the junior high students and their events and teachers. People in this community genuinely care about one another.  We are involved in the development of young people growing up to be responsible, respectful, honest, and supportive leaders for our future.”
