The Junior Class has 2 Prom fundraisers left for you to participate in during basketball season. Contact Tracy Moody for more information:
1. We will be doing the basketball board again for all home varsity games. You can buy a spot on the board for $20. Scores will be checked at half-time of each home varsity girls and boys game. $30 will be given to the winner each time. We have 7 home games and you need not be present to win. The first 25 people to contact Tracy Moody at tracy.moody@k12.sd.us will have spots on the board!! The board is uploaded to our Google Drive.
2. A new idea this year, we will have The Super Sofa!! You can purchase a ticket to sit on the sofa with up to 3 friends for a single home game. 2 names will be drawn for double headers. Each ticket is $5, you may purchase as many as you would like. This should be great fun for elementary through adults! Your ticket will stay in the bucket the entire year unless it is drawn!!
