NBW Bank of Waupun recently received a $1,000 contribution they could designate to a charitable organization of their choice. The donation originated with United Financial Services of Grafton. Coincidentally, the UFS President, Mike Tenpas is a former Waupun Warrior.

Jerry O’Connor, President of NBW commented, “This donation is being directed to the Waupun Athletic Booster Club toward the cost of installing a wooden statue of “Wallace” the Warrior Mascot, which will be placed at the entrance to the new athletic complex. Wallace is expected to be unveiled to the public in the coming weeks and NBW wanted to be part of what will become a memorable piece of Warrior lore for years to come.”  

The Waupun Athletic Booster Club is a group of parents, coaches, and community members who help to support the 22 different sports in the Waupun Area School District. The Athletic Booster Club coordinates donations to invest in our athletic teams to allow them to be competitive and represent the school and community with pride.

“This year NBW is also sponsoring the “Game of the Week” broadcasts as heard on WFDL 1170. As a community bank we enthusiastically support our youth programs and encourage others to be part of the financial support for organizations such as the Waupun Athletic Booster Club. Thank you to Booster Club Board and many volunteers for their commitment to our area youth.”
