The city of Bryan is buzzing with excitement as the Bryan Independent School District (Bryan ISD) rolls out a fresh initiative designed specifically for the senior community. Say hello to the Silver Club Card – a delightful new offer for all community members aged 60 and older. This shiny new card is set to not only energize local seniors but also enhance their connection to the student body through lively sporting and fine arts events.
With the Silver Club Card in hand, seniors can enjoy free admission to any regular season home sporting event and most fine arts programs within Bryan ISD. Yes, you heard right! Whether it’s football, basketball, theatre performances, or art shows, cardholders can bring along one guest of any age, making it a perfect chance to bond with family or friends during these exciting events.
Kallie Donley, the Communications Coordinator for Bryan ISD, has emphasized that this initiative is all about family and community engagement. By introducing the Silver Club Card, the district aims to encourage seniors to support students actively while fostering a sense of belonging within the community. It’s a fantastic way for the younger generation to see their senior community members cheering them on from the stands!
If you’re a senior residing in Bryan or even if you live outside of Bryan ISD, you can grab your Silver Club Card by stopping by the Bryan ISD Athletics Office or the Fine Arts Office. Just bring along some form of identification, and you’ll be all set to start attending events for free. It’s that simple!
In 2008, Viking Stadium was renamed Merrill Green Stadium in his honor, a fitting tribute for someone who dedicated most of his life to shaping young athletes. Beyond coaching, Coach Green was actively involved in the community, serving on the Bryan ISD board of trustees and being a welcoming presence at local Rotary Club events and church activities. His commitment to fostering young talent and his passion for sports have left an indelible mark on the Bryan community.
Even as she prepares to step away from her formal role, Williamson intends to stay involved with BISD sports and continue nurturing local talent. She has highlighted the critical role of relationships and community collaboration in building successful programs. It’s clear that her impact will continue to resonate throughout the district.
