McKenzie Banner Donates to McKenzie Touchdown Club
From the Mar 3, 2026 e-Edition
McKENZIE (February 27) — For 25+ years, the McKenzie Touchdown Club and Tri-County Publishing, Inc. dba The McKenzie Banner and TCP Print Shop have partnered to create the Rebels’ Football Program featuring high school and middle school players, managers, coaches, cheerleaders, rosters, schedules, statistics and supporting advertising from the community.
In the past, a Touchdown Club representative, usually a parent, volunteered an estimated 60+ hours of their time selling sponsorship advertising for the book. Since 2021, the production method has looked a little different.
The Banner now gathers the content, sells the sponsor advertising and no longer charges the Touchdown Club for creating and printing the books but gives a percentage donation to the club with 100-125 programs to sell for additional revenue.
Over the last four years, The Banner has also donated a percentage of Rebel football yard sign sales to the Touchdown Club.
On Friday, Reni Toombs, treasurer for McKenzie Touchdown Club, accepted a $2,169 check for proceeds from advertising and yard sign sales from The Banner.
Previous years’ donations were $2,969.80 in 2024; $3,523.40 in 2023; $2,656 in 2022; and $2,286 in 2021, totaling to $13,604.20 over five years. This is the first time in recent years that the donation has been photographed.
The Banner is honored to partner with McKenzie Touchdown Club to support the McKenzie Rebels.
