Good afternoon Tiger Family,
This is an update of our athletic attendance procedures. Tomorrow will be our final football game as we take on the Ridgeland Jaguars. Each student-athlete will be allowed two guests (Parent/Guardian) to attend the game. Our cheerleaders and football players will need to complete the Microsoft Form that was emailed to them from Athletic Director, Coach Brandyburg. Those younger non-school age children that are in the care of a parent/guardian attending the game will be admitted. This contest will be at no cost to our fans. Please be reminded that there is a clear bag policy as well as everyone entering the stadium will be searched and/or wanded. As we move into basketball season, please expect further communication as we share our new attendance procedures for our winter athletic contests.
Parents and Families, please come out on Saturday, November 9th from 11 AM to 2PM to the Allendale County Fire Department. They will be having an open house and will be educating the public about fire prevention. Show your local firefighters some support and get involved in the community!
