The Buffalo Club

The HERD Alumni Foundation’s mission is to support the Mountain Lakes HERD football program through fundraising and community building efforts. Thanks to the hard work by our volunteers and the generosity of the members of our HERD family, we’re proud to say that we have been able to acheive our goals and stay true to the vision that the late Coach Wilkins had when he formed the foundation.

The Buffalo Club represents the next evolution in our fundraising efforts. It is a new and exciting way to support the HERD Alumni Foundation and is designed to give back to our dedicated supporters as a way of thanking you for continuing to believe in the spirit of the HERD. The concept is simple: in return for your generous support, you will receive rewards for your donations that are exclusive to Buffalo Club members. The more you give, the more you get! It’s our way of expressing our thanks beyond a simple thank you.

 Hustle, Enthusiasm, Roughness, Desire & Dedication. These are the five foundational principles of the HERD. The fundamental truths about what it takes to succeed. The creed that guides our actions; both on the field and off. Every Herdsman knows these words, and many of us continue to live by them even to this day. As you explore the Buffalo Club’s four levels of giving, think back to your days on the practice and game fields and remember what Hustle, Enthusiasm, Rougness, Desire & Dedication meant to you then…and what it means to you now.

We hope you consider joining the Buffalo Club. With your support, we can continue to carry out the vision of the man who supported us all, Coach Doug Wilkins.
