BONFIRE TONIGHT
The homecoming bonfire will
tonight on the practice field next to the high school.
I encourage you to go and
enjoy the evening. The community is invited and it is a family friendly
event. Many of the booster organizations, clubs and classes will be
sponsoring booths. The bonfire is the first major fundraiser of the year for
some and for others it is their only fundraiser. I can't wait to see
the assortment of tasty treats and products that will be offered this year.
In years past I found there was no need to make dinner. There were plenty of
goodies to create a complete meal; appetizers, main course and desserts! In
addition to good things to eat and drink there are fun things to do and
music provided by a DJ. Last year taking turns smashing a car was a big hit
and the dunking booth always proves to be a crowd drawing attraction. And of
course there will be plenty of FR proud items to purchase. For those of you
who can't get there at the start of things, the festivities usually last
until 9:00 PM or so. So come on out and join the fun!
(ASB)
FYI - I only
have a few of the details about what will be offered tonight, but I thought
I would share what I know:
I hope the
weather cooperates tonight! Keep your fingers crossed that the rain holds
off!
ALUMNI TENT TO BE
SET UP AT HOMECOMING FOOTBALL GAME
The National Honor Society will
sponsor, for the first time, a special tent for Alumni at the
Homecoming football game on Friday, October 12. The tent will be
set up close to the end zone nearest to the high school.
In the past returning students
often end up walking around the looking for friends. This year the
NHS tent will give returning alumni a place to meet, catch up on
news and have refreshments. NHS members will be manning the
tent. The tent will be open from 7 pm through halftime.
(Joan Mellon)
FREE STUDENT
ADMISSION TO GAME ON FRIDAY
FRHS students can get into the game for free on Friday
if they bring 2 cans of food to the ticket window. The can goods will go
to the Murrysville food bank to help local families. The collection
drive is being sponsored by the Key Club.
