Mattydale Vikings need your help

Back in the beginning of October our stand was broken into. The first time it happened only a small amount of money was stolen from our till in the concession stand. IT hurt us little bit but luckily our security cameras were working and gave us a clear shot of the two people that perpetrated the crime. This was reported with the sheriffs department immediately and they took the hard drive of the security system for evidence. While they were looking for the perpetrators, the two individuals found out that we had them on camera. Three days later we had a second break in, perpetrated by the same two individuals. This time they had a key that they had stolen from the office from the first break in which they used to open the doors. They proceeded to rip cameras off all the walls upstairs and in concession. urinated in our office and both our cheer and football room, ruining most of our shoulder pads and cheer uniforms and the like. they then went down stairs to the concession stand and spray painted the walls with a multitude of vulgar words and pictures on the spent the night cooking and eating food out of the concession stand. We were not able to open concession for games the next day and this hurt us with funding as well.

The week after all this happened we found out that our ATM/debit card for our account was also stolen the night of the break in. The charges that were made left us with a negative balance of 1400 as other checks hit the account at the same time. Due to the mismanagement of other funds by our former president we continue to get overdue bills in the mail with no means to pay them. We are in the situation now where we have no funding to reopen next year and no funding to replace repair the damaged shoulder pads for the youth to play.
We are asking that the community step in to help us keep the program running for the youth.
