For an organization that contributes money to an associated club or sports team Booster club Boosterism is the act of boosting or promoting a town, city, or organization, with the goal of improving public perception of it. Boosting can be as simple as talking up the entity at a party or as elaborate as establishing a visitors bureau. It has been somewhat associated with United States American small town s. Boosting is also done in political settings, especially in regard to disputed policies or controversial events. During the expansion of the American and Canada Canadian West, boosterism became epidemic as the leaders and owners of small towns made extravagant predictions for their settlement, in the hope of attracting more residents and, not coincidentally, inflating the prices of local real estate . The 1871 humorous speech The Untold Delights of Duluth, Minnesota Duluth , delivered by Democratic U.S. Representative J. Proctor Knott , lampooned boosterism. Boosterism is also a major theme of two novel s by Sinclair Lewis &mdash Main Street novel Main Street published 1920 and Babbitt novel Babbitt 1922 . As indicated by an editorial that Lewis wrote in 1908 entitled The Needful Knocker , boosting was the opposite of knocking. The editorial explained quote The booster s enthusiasm is the motive force which builds up our American cities. Granted. But the hated knocker s jibes are the check necessary to guide that force. In summary then, we do not wish to knock the booster, but we certainly do wish to boost the j knocker. &ndash Sinclair Lewis ref Quoted in Schorer, M. Sinclair Lewis An American Life , page 142.
