Veribest cancelled the rest of their JV season on Tuesday afternoon. We have not been able to find a replacement opponent, so High School will not have a game on Thursday October 8th after the JH game.
All other activities will take place as planned, and the schedule will be as follows:
3:45pm - Senior Pep Rally (JH & HS)
5:00pm - JH Football game vs. Veribest
We ask that everyone to please remain in the stands or at least stay off of the track/football field unless they are escorting Seniors.
6:00pm (no earlier) - or 5 minutes after JH game ends:
- Senior Recognition in this order: Band, Cheer, Cross Country, Football
Immediately following Senior Recognition, Band performs.
We ask that everyone to please remain in the stands or at least stay off of the track/football field until the band has finished their entire performance.
We apologize for any inconvenience.

A reminder about wearing Pink for October:
Athletes may wear pink in practice and games/meets for a $20 flat donation. These funds will be donated to the local cancer charity. We support awareness, but want to use the opportunity to help those going through treatment.

Among our special guests was Ms. Christina (Hernandez) Gebara, who was a proud member of the Eden Bulldog Pep Squad from about 1944-1947. What a special piece of Bulldog history!
We are so thankful for the continued support of our community and love seeing Bulldog spirit spanning generations.
