Olmsted Falls Athletic Coverage In Danger of Paywalls at KOS

When I created Kee On Sports in 2018, my biggest goal was to create a company that covered as many schools as possible. At the same time, NEVER charging the parents or student body to read about their student athletes.  I figured if I got a small business in each city there was a school to sponsor the website, it would never be a problem.

In the six years of coverage, Olmsted Falls has been one of our staple schools as we have covered every single football game since 2018, and a host of basketball and lacrosse games as well. Each time, at no cost so everyone could enjoy it.

I love Olmsted Falls because it is a blue collar town.  Honestly, it reminds me of my dad who was a bus driver, my grandpa who was a mailman and my mom who was a beautician.  Real people with hearts of gold!

Sadly, in the six years we have covered Olmsted Falls athletics, we have received almost no sponsorship support from local companies.  With the sole exception of last season, it has always been dormant.  That being said, for six years Kee On Sports has spent thousands of dollars to cover Olmsted Falls athletics with written content, photos and even live broadcasts of games with little financial support to do so from Olmsted Falls commerce.

Trust me, I don’t want to charge anyone, I hate the thought of that, but at this point, I have no choice if we do not start getting Olmsted Falls companies in the door to help pay for that coverage with advertising dollars.

Again, I want to keep it free! We don’t want that to end, and we don’t want to charge a single parent, alumni, classmate or ANYONE behind a ridiculous paywall like other sites and news prints do.  We want to keep it free for you. We cannot however without an Olmsted Falls business helping out.

Or, if we get enough donations in the name of Olmsted Falls athletic coverage that would match the cost of a sponsorship.  Thus, there is still time to avoid this drastic measure from taking place. If you would like to help our coverage of Olmsted Falls athletics avoid being placed behind a paywall, you can donate at the below link.

Thank you.
