We will definitely be buying a couple of helium tanks for the Homecoming game this Friday. Staci offered to pick them up. We will be using more balloons than usual so we will need two. I checked with Adam’s Florist and Dollar store to see the cost for them to blow up the balloons for us and unfortunately the cost is very high due to raising costs and helium shortages. The helium tanks are very pricey this year so If you can help, give Staci your money 😂

I did order 8 dozen glazed donuts from Food park. My mom is taking them in the morning to the field house for the boys breakfast immediately following practice. Lacy is providing sausage links as well. Bobbi an her mother are providing Sunny D. Angela C. is bringing 3-4 gallons of milk.

We will also be doing a taco 🌮 bar for tailgating for Friday night’s game. Richards and Barkers will be providing the meat. We will be making 8 lbs total! If you want to sign up below for an item to contribute that would be awesome:

1. This Wednesday for Homecoming we will be doing breakfast at 7am for the boys right after early practice. I’m calling Food Park and ordering 8 dozen glazed donuts. Lacy Eck will be making sausages and bringing them. My mom will pick up the donuts and drop them off. Cross will be bringing 4 gallons of milk and cups. Anyone want to buy the juice? Also, if anyone would like to go in on the donuts please get ahold of me.

2. Decorations for game night? I do have a couple of different Fox balloons we can use. We have plenty of green and white regular balloons but I don’t have a balloon arch but would like to go a little extra since it is Homecoming. Also, we discussed just having Dollar store blow up balloons so we could just go there and buy balloons and have them blow us up a few bundles: ideas welcome 🤗

🏈🦊Homecoming is next week. In the past the parents do something special for the players each day of the week. Normally we take them to Flossie in the office. Examples: Treat bags, headbands, bracelets, Foxes coozie, plastic cups, sunglasses, cookies, cupcakes, sodas etc. If you want to participate but don’t really have time, you can throw money or a single item to Krystal for the treat bags. Again, it’s just for fun and to keep the players spirits up. Also, it can be more than one thing a day. 🦊🏈

Monday- Krystal Kelly- Treat bags
Tuesday- Staci Barker- Cupcakes
Wednesday- Breakfast before school
Thursday- Lacy E- Mountain Dews, Heather C.
Friday- Alicia A- Sweet treat, Bobbi W.-Drinks

43 players- JV and Varsity

Friday is the first away game. We still need Gatorades and maybe one more person for a snack. Any takers?

We’ll be at the field early decorating around 6:15. I have lots of balloons, and I made a couple of big bows to put on the front gates. I also have extra Liquid IV hydration water packets I will bring to the game tomorrow for any of the boys who might need one before the game. Don’t forget the Barkers are cooking hot dogs for the tailgate as well. The players really enjoy parents, family and friends supporting them! Everyone come join in 🏈💚🦊

The Barkers will be set up at 6:30 now since the game has been moved back to 8:00pm. Please post if you are bringing anything. I have commented updates on who is bringing and what they are bringing.

Lacy Eck has agreed to purchase Uncrustables through the school for us! If anyone wants to help with the cost that would be great.
