TONIGHT: POWDER PUFF FOOTBALL, 7:00 PM @ EHS. The gates open at 6:00 PM, and the game starts at 7:00. This event is a grad-nite fundraiser and costs $3 for students and $5 for adults. If you have never been to a powder puff game you should come on down as they are fun to watch. The girls have been practicing for the past month and are ready to go. The Seniors are on a 7 game winning streak vs. the Juniors, however this Junior team is the strongest one in recent history and the current Vegas Line has the Juniors favored by 9 points…….. Good Luck to both teams.
The EHS Booster Club meets the 3rd Wednesday of each month at 7:00 PM. Recently they moved the meetings to the EHS Library. The next meeting is this Wednesday, October 15th. The Booster Club does a TON for the student athletes here at EHS, and they could always use more volunteers. Come to a meeting and check it out.
A reminder that if you are planning on participating in a FALL sport (soccer, x-country, volleyball or football), athletic registration is scheduled for Thursday, August 7th from 5-8 PM at EHS. The fee for a sport at EHS is $125.00. Now is a good time to schedule a physical if your student/athlete has not had one in the last 2 years (they are required before the first day of practice on August 18th). You can find the OSAA required physical form on our website at the following link if your doctor does not have it already. http://www.fernridge.k12.or.us/elmirahs/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2013/10/OSAA-Physical-Form.pdf
