This collection consists of issues of a newsletter produced by the Georgia Tech Athletic Association for the Junior Jacket Club. The newsletters contain articles on sports of the season, schedules, announcements for upcoming events, applications for membership and tickets, and other articles of interest to the readership.
The Junior Jacket Club was a club formed by the Georgia Tech Athletic Association to allow children to become involved in Georgia Tech athletics. Participants in the club received a certificate of membership, free tickets to some Georgia Tech games, newsletters, T-shirts, and other items. Eventually, due to NCAA regulations, membership was limited to children who were 14 years old or younger. The club was active for a period of time in the mid 1990s, and at that point had more than 4,000 members. As of this writing (March 2012), the club is no longer in existence.
