Several students are attending the FFA CDE in Redfield today.
There will be a Pep Rally in Woonsocket this afternoon
for the girls’ basketball team at 2:30 p.m. Coaches, cheerleaders and varsity girls’
basketball players will be bussed over at 2:15 p.m. Any other student wishing
to attend must have parent permission prior to noon on Friday. The Pep Rally
will include cheers and chants by the cheerleaders, a skit “Blackhawk Fever” by
Lieber and crew, the introduction of players and coaches, a game directed by
Tara Weber, the Blackhawk School Song, and a performance by Mr. Kroeger.
The Lady Blackhawks will be playing for the Region 5
Championship against Mitchell Christian at the Huron Arena tonight at 7:00 p.m.
The player and cheerleader bus will leave Sanborn Central at 5:00 p.m. and
Woonsocket at 5:15 p.m.
Tonight’s game will be on KOOL 98.3 FM radio.
The SCW Pep Band will be playing before and during
halftime of tonight’s game at the Huron Arena. A bus for band members will
leave Woonsocket at 5:15 p.m. and Sanborn Central at 5:30 p.m. Band members are
not required to ride the bus, but will need to have parent permission to drive
up themselves (the required form needs to be filled out ahead of time). If band
members do not ride the bus, they will need to follow the bus or meet the bus
at the band entrance if they want to get in free as the only way for free
admission is through the entrance for band students. All band members should be
prepared to help unload the bus at 6:10 p.m. Members need to be seated and
ready to play by 6:30 p.m. and 2 minutes before halftime. Members that ride the
bus to Huron but do not want to ride the bus home must also have parent
permission via the required form. If a band member is at the game and is not
playing basketball or cheerleading, they are expected to play in Pep Band or
they will be dropped a letter grade in Band.
