Game Changer

Barron Heating AC Electrical & Plumbing believes in being involved in the community and is proud to support local high school athletics.

This year we will award a $1,000 grant at the end of regular season basketball and football to one area high school.

How Can We Help?

How will this work?

Each local high school basketball and football game that is broadcasted live by Cascade Radio Group’s KPUG & KGMI (see schedules below) will have a chance at the award. A player from each team will be chosen as that team’s "Game Changer" and an entry will be given to that player’s school for the grant on behalf of its "Game Changer." Each "Game Changer" will also be awarded a "Game Changer" t-shirt designed especially for them to wear with pride.

We salute high school athletes, their schools and all that support them.
