Just a reminder about the recruitment picnic and concert on Monday, the 12th. Please remember that we are furnishing the food for the band and the 8th grades from two schools. The boosters will cook hamburgers and hot dogs, and everyone else will bring stuff according to grade level:
9th - 2 liters of drinks
10th - Side items such as chips, potato salad, etc.
11th - Desserts

Last year, we almost didn’t have enough. David Cook saved the day by running out and picking up extra, so PLEASE bring plenty!

The picnic starts at 6:00, but those cooking need to be there earlier. The concert is at 7:00. See you there!

Our amazing football team has a play-off game this Friday night at WBHS. PLEASE, we need help in the concessions. We’ve begged and begged, and I’m sure you are as tired of hearing it as I am of saying it, but we can’t do this without help. Right now, we have only half as many as we need. These few are the loyal regulars that are there for everything. We need the rest of you to step up and do your part.

Please remember that tomorrow night (Friday, October 26) is the last home game of the regular season. We need extra people to work because several of us have seniors and will be with them. We have very few people signed up at this time. Don’t be the reason that we have to close one of the concession stands. It makes the lines so much longer when we do and that means that some people won’t want to wait.
