2025 Football Camp Schedule


Congratulations to our WaMac West All Conference Selections!


Benton Community's Averie Gale is preparing for an adventure as a foreign exchange student in Denmark in the year ahead. Oftentimes, Benton will receive exchange students, but it is very rare for us to send a foreign exchange student to another country. Averie has worked hard to get to this point and is providing a presentation about her experience to this point. The event details are below.



Over the past 3 days the boys and girls golf teams hosted their annual golf camp out at Tara Hills Country Club. This year we had 47 golfers turn out for camp. Golfers had the chance to work on their chipping, putting, irons, and driving skills. They were also able to test their skills in those areas, and then play a few holes out on the golf course. Overall, it was a fun 3 days and the kids learned a lot!!!



💪🏽 The Benton Girls' Wrestling Team recently hosted a summer camp, and it was a huge success! 🤼♀️ We're proud of their commitment to the sport and excited to see the growth happening in our program. Way to go, Bobcats! 🐾💙
