Another key recipient was the Grand Terrace High School Titan Wrestling Booster Club, which was awarded $2,000. These funds will be instrumental in supporting the club’s activities for the new season, including the purchase of new gear and the organization of community events. The Titan Wrestling program has a strong tradition of excellence, and this grant will help them maintain their high standards while engaging the local community.
