Spirit Sweeties

Posted by Dave Rea on Sep 11 2002 at 05:00PM PDT
The Spirit Sweeties was started in 1978 by then Buckeye Head Football Coach, and present AD Ken Woodruff, as a support group for the football team. Woody was also responsible for beginning the Buckeye Football Mom's Club. The Spirit Sweeties currently operate within the Mom's Club. In the Spring of 2000 Ken Woodruff, Athletic Director asked Christine Sharrar, Vice President of the Football Mom's Club to be the Spirit Sweetie advisor. In 2001, Mrs. Sharrar, attempted to take the Sweeties school-wide to support all the sports, while good intentioned, this task proved to be too great for the club. The Sweeties went back to the Football Mom's Club, and are currently involved decorating the school for games, arranging Friday Power Treats for the Football Team, having a pre-season kick off BBQ, and forming cheering sections at the games. All the money earned by selling spirit items goes back to the football team in the form of power treats and spirit items. The club consists of 30 girls from all 4 classes and they remain LOUD and PROUD! Some background on Advisor Christine Sharrar: She has 2 sons that are in open enrollment at Buckeye, grades 9 and 12, Dan and Steve. She has been married 19 years to fellow Californian, Kristopher. She volunteers at Buckeye High School as a Registered Nurse on Wednesdays and Fridays, and also works Per Diem as a staff nurse at Akron City Hospital. Her Spirit Qualifications: She was elected Pep Commissioner(sounds official) at Capistrano Valley High School in Mission Viejo, California(Isn't that where the Swallows return to?)in a year that she says slips the mind at the moment. Her High School football team took the CIF Championship in her Senior Year. GO COUGARS! She has worked at Disneyland, and was chosen to be a "Bruin Belle" at UCLA (University of California Los Angeles) and be an official hostess to the University a few years after that year she can't remember. She also was a Kappa Delta sorority girl.
